Pombal do Vesuvio Quinta Do Vesuvio Touriga Nacional Blend

Jammy strawberries. Full bodied and very drinkable as cocktail w/out food.

Beautiful wine. Firm tannins, but great balance and plenty of fruit. Very impressive. Best wine I've had from Portugal.

Leagues beyond where the 2008 was. Still youthful and direct with great aromatics and nice fruit without being overblown. A great value dry wine from the Douro

Taninos leves c/ intensidade na boca final. Light, mas muito bom c/ Steak Tartare

2011

We loved this wine so much the last time we were here we had to order it again! Layered, smooth and dangerously drinkable.

Low tannin, full bodied. Almost like a juice. Personally not for me. Definite red cherry and strawberry notes. Drink with rich dishes.

Soft but strong!

Very good. Symington.
Portuguese wine tasting at D'Canter: 2011 vintage. Smell: dried red cherries. Taste: espresso/mocha/coca. Elegant, not "in-your-face". Good w cheese: drunken goat, rosy goat (rosemary)
