These keep getting better. Was a little musty on pop and pour, but day two it’s all deep, lush, dark fruit with a long prune-y finish.

Love these Portuguese wines! 2011 was an amazing vintage and this wine does not disappoint! Lush Black fruit, clove, fennel, and charcoal. Highly recommend.

Ripe fruit. Big. Very big. Give his a couple more years and it will punch you in the face like Mike Tyson prior to the ra— nvm.

Deep brick red wine, garnet rim, big bright cherry on the nose, big blackberry, blueberry, wet earth, slate, spice, black pepper on the palate.. huge, high tannin. Very interesting. Medium acid, big full body, very complex, intellectual wine. Mushroom on the palate. No evidence of oak.

Suuuuuuper dry, slightly smoky, dark plums. A little woody, too. Really quite excellent.

Still young on the nose, red ripe fruits, wood a bit too present, full bodie wine but with a lack of acidity that gives a heavy feeling at the end
