16.5 / 20 |
Region: Alentejo
Country: Portugal
Deeply purple to the eye, the nose on this Alentejo is intense, showing lots of ripe red fruits, some dried plums and raisins and a nice touch of oaky notes.
Good structure on the palate, again showing in first impact some dried fruits that later open to some red fruit. This is matched by cocoa and toast notes from the oak and a good, refreshing acidity.
Lively, very present tannins provide this with an added structure and give it a good presence in the palate, finishing long.
