Varanda do Castelo 2009

14.5 / 20
Producer: Adega Cooperativa de Pinhel
Region: Beira Interior
Country: Portugal







Light garnet in the glass, the nose is mainly composed of wild and acid red fruits with a slight hint of oak.


Lots of acidity in the mouth, typical of the region, with some quite hard tannins still going strong, this is a very fruit-forward wine, with some tenuous oak notes. Slightly rustic approach where the alcohol level seems too high for the wine light structure.
