Reviewed July 2022This impressive wine layers tannins and dark fruits in a rich structure. The wine is powerful and concentrated; bold while still elegant. Drink this fine wine from 2024. (RV)

This was a great way to start a tasting on a very early Wednesday morning. A nose redolent of boysenberries, mint and chocolate. On the palate, soft and supple, with darker red fruits and a nice hint of chalk on the finish. Not familiar with red wines from Portugal? Definitely start here!
Notes
A blend of Aragonez, Trincadeira, Syrah, Touriga Nacional, Cabernet Sauvignon, Touriga Franca, and Alicante Bouschet. All of the grapes were fermented seperately and then blended then the wine was aged in a mix of French and American barrels for one year. 2019 is the first year that all of the fruit for this wine was certified organic.
