Monday, May 9, 2022 - -- popped and poured on Day 1; revisited on Day 4 -- --
-- tasted non-blind --
-- 80% Baga, 20% Touriga Nacional --
NOSE: wet cement; blackberries; hints of red licorice and flowers; a bit high-toned; has a very Cab. - like aromatics.
BODY: medium-light bodied.
TASTE: rustic, with medium-fine grained tannins; very faint hint of funk; light blackberries/plums; 12.5% alc. not noticeable; medium+ acidity; moreish; a legitimate Pinot Noir substitute, from a culinary perspective. Came across as a bit heavier on Day 4 than it was on Day 1, but still excellent. Will likely buy again.
