Douro, Portugal
Another fantastic red from the Douro that paired perfectly with the prime rib steak I had. Full bodies with a woody bouquet.

Dutch chocolate with blackberries and mint, rich dirt, dark tobacco, flux smoke on copper. Tar and black currant, smoky, black cherry wash the tongue, graphite is strong and remains indelible throughout. Gets smoky with a walnut edge. This is a craggy mountain of a wine, with herbs popping out of every crevice. It is a wonder to behold, and satisfies with every climb. #portugal #portuguesewine #roquettecazes

Aromas of black cherry, blackberry, black plum, all very ripe and cooked, mint, vanilla, forest floor, tobacco. In taste, dry, warm, still good acidity and round tannins. It’s very smooth and balanced. Great wine!

Dusty and slight spice of paprika and baking spices. Chewy tannins, good structure that helps make the wine taste hotter than it is.
