Community Tasting Note

petebedding Likes this wine:

Saturday, November 26, 2011 - Serious depth, quality and a long savoury length but hard to enjoy as it's still young.

Tasted at a dinner party with other friends from the wine industry. Layers of spicy he flavours such as liquorice, deep dark fruits and bacon. Structured tannins add to it's weight though it is still smooth and easy to drink.

A tricky wine which was enjoyed on an analytical basis, and given a high score because of its depth, complexity, length and power, but it was actually hard to enjoy this wine, and normally love Portuguese reds. I can understand why this wine has been made and am eager to see what might happen in the next 5-8 years but would not drink again until then.
