Perhaps I don't like Preito Picudo, perhaps this is just past its peak, or possibly this bottle is just dirtier than it should be. Despite good good enough density, this isn't particularly fun or harmonious. Sadly I have another bottle. Not fun when popped-and-poured, then no better a few hours later.

I had this after dinner on 3/20/19. It had soft, elegant bouquet of plum, tea and mocha aromas. The palate was smooth, soft and round with flavors that followed the nose.

Decent full bodied wine, nothing off but nothing real distinctive either. Ok for $29

Took to a dinner party...with lots of other wines. I really enjoyed this lighter style of wine (reminds me a little of Nebbiolo). Decanted 2 hours.

Definite cork taint, the wine was still drinkable but fruit/flavor was very muted - not scored.
