| Notes | "This is certainly an intensely structured wine, but its name seems rather excessive for what are balanced fruit and juicy tannins. It has a smooth, minty character, bold berry fruits and a ripe full texture." (Wine Enthusiast) "Concentrated, with ripe black cherry tart and raspberry reduction notes underpinned with mocha and baking spice details. Supple tannins frame the mineral and grilled herb aromas on the finish. Touriga Nacional, Syrah, Tinta Roriz and Alicante Bouschet." (Wine Spectator) | |||
