Quinta de Cabriz
Dão Colheita Seleccionada Encruzado Blend
Dão, Beiras, PortugalI’m torn between “watery” and “silky.” Acid is high, tanin is low. Somehow this bit of an oxymoron works!

1 person found it helpfulNov 30th, 2020Another solid vintage. Blend of Alfrocheiro (40%), Touriga National (30%) and Tinta Roriz (30%). Dark ruby color. Aromas of ripe black fruit, violets and subtle spice. Flavors of black cherry/raspberry/currant/plum fruit, dried herbs and sweet baking spices. Slight touch of oak on the long finish. Noticeable acidity and very smooth tannins. Fresh and well balanced. Plush structure. Excellent value. Wonderfully consistent vintage to vintage. Thank you for saving me a glass, Chris B!

Nov 15th, 2024Simple but distinctive aroma, not tart, sour and bitter. Clean and balanced. Very good.

Dry, not delicious. Acidic and no great finish. We'll finish the bottle but won't purchase again.
