What a wonderful darkness by pouring in this amazing wine. Fruitful nose of blueberries and plums from the very beginning, for a basically dry wine fruit-sugar contrast to the delicate acid at the end in a perfect balance. A Portuguese which puts several high class Bordeaux in the shade.

What a surprise! How restricted and shy at nose it develops after some breathing incredible tastes of bluberries and especially cherries I am not used to at this extent, neither in St.Emilion nor in the rest of le Bordelais. With perfectly incorporated tannins it is like velvet at palate and a pure pleasure throughout the bottle... A wine you can serve any lady you want to convince of your sommelier's proficiency - and more...
