You guys know, I like trying single varietal wines and this is really interesting, since it's an "international variatal" and not native to Portugal. Really fun!!!! And really good. Notes of peach, honeysuckle and hints of sweet nectar. There's also hints of oak and tar from the barrel aging. I love this. This would be a perfect match for Thanksgiving. |

5/24/2017 - SuperSomm wrote: NRDeep ruby red colour with purple edges. Wood, toast and dark plums on the nose. Taste of ripe dark fruits, with hints of earth and herbs. Good acidity and structure, with a dry, almost bitter finish. Goes well with grilled meat, pork or game. |

This red from Alentejo is a blend of 40% Alicante Bouschet, 25% Touriga Nacional, 20% Syrah and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. With grapes like those and the winery history, how could I pass this up? Very dark ruby in color. Lots of delicious spice jumps from the glass.... pepper, tobacco, mint, slate with really juicy red fruits. Dark cherry, plum and slight hints of cassis. Very tasty. But there's a slight green streak on the finish that detracts from, what is generally, a very delicious wine. Grade: B+ |

Medium plus bodied with dark baking spices and currants on the palate, and a bit of tobacco. A bit spicy too with a long finish. Drink till 2032. |

8/2/2022 - diffwine wrote: 88 pointsThis is some pretty decent QPR from Portugal as they often are these days. On the nose, bramble like fruit, red, blue and black fruits present. Showing a blend. Hint of spices, some black peppercorn, and a slight green note. Much of the same on the palate, with some spice that lingers. Medium + acidity, medium to medium - tannin. This has mellowed out with time. My tastes have definitely shifted from wines like these, but good for what it is. A solid weeknight wine with no fuss. |

2/6/2022 - caspernick Likes this wine: 93 pointsSecond wine up at the 24th Virtual tasting was a Portuguese blend that had 50% Alicante Bouschet- a new varietal to the group. A deep garnet color, this wine was showing a touch of age. On the nose we got blueberry, tobacco, licorice, loads of black cherry, some funk and oak influence by way of smoke, creosote, vanilla, charcoal, chocolate and cedar- our tasting group is that sensitive! |

9/19/2021 - mwagner7700 Likes this wine: NRPurchased for $20. Per the back label, we opened one hour before serving (but we did not decant). This is delicious. Sweet juicy raspberry, cassis, blackberry, spice. New world fruit with that "Portuguese spice". Equal parts (25%) of: Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Petit Verdot and Touriga Nacional. I really enjoyed this. This isn't the wine you would drink if you're looking for a sense of place. But this is delicious. Grade: A |

8/17/2021 - mwagner7700 Likes this wine: NRPurchased for $18. Beautiful golden yellow color. I noticed this was 100% viognier and got excited. Usually I try to stay clear of the "international varietals" in Portugal, preferring the regional grapes. But I do enjoy a good viognier, and one with 6 years of age? I had to try it. And boy oh boy, am I glad I did. This was great. Notes of peach, honeysuckle and hints of sweet nectar. There's also hints of oak and tar from the barrel aging. I love this. Grade: A |
