  January 22, 2016 - Stelvin closure.
  
  Aromas recalling sangiovese, dark cherry.
  Simple flavours follow through on palate. Refreshing acidity, medium finish. Rustic tannins, slight astringency.
  Pairs well with tomato sauce dishes.
  
  Drink or hold to 2020

  February 2, 2015 - First impression of iron-like aroma, followed by fresh raspberry, red cherry, with a earthy, leafy and leathery touch.
  Good body, with nice acidity and still rough tannins. The iron character reminded me of Merlot.

  August 7, 2012 - Portuguese Reds (Sydney): Colour: Pale ruby, clear, tears
  Nose: Clean, medium intensity, developing wine with aromas of meat, farmyard, stewed generic fruit that is more savoury than sweet toned and slight medicinal herbs.
  Mouth: Medium plus tannin that is grippy and translates as astringent with slightly bitter elements on the finish. Sour black fruit.

  July 6, 2012 - Bebido em restaurante. Nota de lembrança: Corte de Baga (maioria) com Touriga Nacional e 12,5% álcool. Tem uma bela cor rubi com boa concentração sem ser exagerada. Nariz revelou um elegante e proeminente caráter mineral e um toque frutado bastante contido, apenas uma vaga lembrança de cereja madura. Na boca tem corpo médio, destaque para uma boa e equilibrada acidez conjugada a uma agradável mineralidade, tendo um apreciável toque de frescor e leveza. Não se mostrou complexo, mas simplesmente elegante, bem equilibrado. Hoje, bebe-se bem, mas deve melhorar em garrafa nos próximos anos e permanecer íntegro até cerca de 2017 (+?). No geral, achei prazeroso e digno de nota à mesa.
