  Took about 4 hrs to stablize the palate, though the nose was beautiful right aftet the opening. Rich dark fruit nose, leaves, dirt, oriental spice with dirt and leaves. Coarse texture and decent acidty. A little bitter aftertaste makes me hesitate to fully appreciate this bottle. Very good wine overall, but tbh, I prefer the normale to this one.

  Light red in colour, great acidity giving this wine a wonderful freshness, nose of rose pedals, little tar and leather notes but mostly red fruit flavours primarily of raspberry, lingering length. Starts slightly tart and then transgress into a softer broader tasting wine with a wonderful sweetness So good at this stage but loads of potential. This wine does not clobber you over the head but instead slowly entices you and grabs your attention glass by glass as you finish your bottle.

  Great wine but drank side by side with the standard PdB bottling (albeit from 2015, not 2014) and at half the price, I'd recommend that over this reserva. I'm glad I tried the Pora though, just to see how good PdB could make a wine. Great stuff.

  Agree this is drinking well albeit still young. Nose is just beautiful with cherry, herbs, red fruit. Palate is medium bodied, sour cherry, riper red fruit as well. Herbs, earth with lots of complexity and a long finish. Cannon still definitely present and some good Ripping acidity giving this great structure. I always do love Pora.

  Drinking really well already in a youthful way. Deep core of dark fruits and well behaved tannins. Im sure this gets technically better with further age, but Im enjoying it already.
