Winery Review: "From vineyards at 2000 feet elevation, this is a rich and spicy wine that has a pure streak of fruit freshness and a firmly tannic core. It is perfumed from Touriga Nacional in the blend, with red berry and black plum flavors coming through strongly along, balanced by acidity. It will be better from 2017."
My Review: This wine is tannic for sure and I am actually not a fan of how dry my mouth was. Dark fruits for sure, probably black plum.
Paired with food: Not this time, but I'll have to try it when the 2017 bottle comes out.
