A wonderful experience. Tannins still present. Cherry. Finish was primary front of tongue with some mid pallet roll off.

Tannic at first taste out of the bottle. More refined after an hour in a decanter. Smooth, complex, and surprisingly light bodied for Douro. An enjoyable weekend bottle.

A bit of carmel and wine-y-ness on nose. Herb and olive on the palate. Full rich and pretty tannic on finish.
