| 16.0 / 20 |
Region: Terras do Sado
Country: Portugal
An eleven year old Cabernet Sauvignon tasted in a magnum format. The color is a beautiful red with a brown margin, showing its age. the nose is already filled with liquorice aromas, along with wood and spices notes. After some time, there is a hint of pepper and vegetable that you would expect from a Cabernet. In the mouth, it is a very elegant wine, with the tannins completely integrated with the fruit and the wood. It has a wonderfully persistent finish. Not sure if it can age much more, but right now it is a very drinkable wine.
Will stand its own with simple roast meats.
