Region:Douro
Country:Portugal
Intense nose on this red from the Douro, showing some dried plums, a balsamic feel that
hints at some evolution and distinct oak/vanilla notes. Later on, some ripe red fruits also join
the bouquet.
In the palate, starts by showing a medium structure, controlled acidity with some toast/oak but it gains
momentum as it breathes. Fine, velvety but very structured tannins start to emerge giving the wine a lot more
structure and depth. Flavors remain focused on the balsamic, oakier side leaving the ripe red fruits more to
the background.
