Had the 99 and 01 side by side. A blend of Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional & Tinta Roriz. 99 was past its prime.. Definitely lacking fruit and vibrancy in the mouth. The 01 was lovely with big blueberry, black berry and black currant. The nose shows a slight hint of Bret but it's doesn't overpower the fruit. Overall an interesting wine
