Red and black ripe fruit, black cherry, plums, med tannins, med+ body. Heft, but not oppressively so. Wow.

I had meant to age this at least a couple years. I mistakenly left this bottle on a heated floor FOR DAYS so opened it to see if I ruined it. Thankfully it’s delicious.
Big dark 🍒 cherry blackberry with an extended mouth feel. My first taste of the Portuguese Jaen grape, aka Mencia.

Lively, fresh redfruited Dao (Portuguese) red made with 100% “Jaen” grape, great acid, structure is not dry and tannic, but definitely there to support some additional mid-term aging, medium-long finish, very fine and serious!!
