New vintage i think @MLCC...~20$ CAN. Not a lot written on CT. Like the style, which is lighter than i would have thought. Nose has nice dark fruit. Palate is light to medium bodied with standard dark fruit, some menthol and light vanilla/oak. Transitions to light oaky qualities on the finish which is medium duration. The acid and tannin's are light but nice such that this is pleasent to drink a touch cool and matches a variety of food fairly easily. Nice portugegese effort.
