Tinta Roriz Castelão

Fantastic blend with just a hint of grip. Decant this if you want to soften it up but for $11 , just pop and drop it! Fantastic fruit and love the dark color.

Drank on 1/3/2023. Fabulous with no breathing, fruit nose, but good finish with coffee and chocolate without falling apart.

Lovely colour. Slightly sharp in the drinking but a good full taste

60%/40% #tintaroriz & #castelão blend - overall a pretty big wine, waves of dark red fruit on the nose, medium acidity and a long finish. Has some raisiny coffee & dark cocoa bitterness. It’s not that well integrated overall so not a #portugesewine standout for me.

Deep red with lots of fruit. Very easy to drink.

Super deep red purple rim.
Chocolate nose with hints of leather and cherries.
Tannic stewed dark bramble fruit.
"warm and winey." according to her

Full bodied blend of Tinta Roriz and Castelao, deep red color, full nose of sweet cherry, fruit forward palate of ripe stone fruit, subtle oak, a delicious wine, what a delight.
