  Rood bruine kleur, in de neus zwart bes, zwarte olijven, drop, zoethout, gedroogd vijgen en pruimen. Stevige wijn, medium zuren, tannines mooi afgebouwd maar wel aanwezig, lange afdronk waarin het fruit en zoethout goed naar voren komt.

  Very dark red color with slightly mahogany rims. Really characterful nose that is both aromatic and rich, with intense, complex notes of heady florals, ripe blue-skinned berries, sunny fruit and a hint of tropical fruit that would be more at home in some white wine. The moderately full-bodied palate is rather robust, yet surprisingly fresh and light on its feet with flavors of freshly picked dark berries, plummy fruit, some oak spice and a hint of smoke. Lovely acid brightness and complexity with moderate tannic grip. Rather long and juicy finish with aromatic oak nuances, juicy figs, some ripe dark berries and hints of plums with good acid brightness that gives length to the aftertaste.
  
  Though full of ripe fruit and extract, this wine sports really attractive brightness and energy too rarely seen in Portuguese reds. Still on its way up. Very elegant and harmonious stuff; at 9,50€ this is a bargain.
