Torre de Tavares
Dão Encruzado
Dão, Beiras, Portugal
Hazy yellow tinged gold color with aromatic, appealing quince, pear, orange marmalade, and wet stone aromas with a appealing oxidized note. On the palate it's well structured, full-bodied, and very fresh, yet lushly textured with a very appealing hint of tannins. It shows tart quince, orange and vanilla flavors, with a hint of baked nectarine and a long mineral driven finish. 12.5% alcohol

Another Encruzado, this one hauled back from Portugal over the summer. Lovely, nutty, a touch of oxidation, but very clean and fresh. No US importer.
