Being a good Cork Supply team member tonight. Really nice for 12.99 at Nugget. Tons of fruit. Good acidity, not enough tannin to mess with food but enough that it feels substantial. Plus a little bit of humus/earth for good measure.

Fruity and balanced, not too much oak in this basic cuvee. Perfect with Portuguese duck rice.

Nice effort out of the Douro! Real nice balance, not too much of the port taste, but some citrus maybe on the backside. Nice nose, medium finish, not a lot of tannin.
