  This wine is drinking very well. Complex flavors for such an inexpensive wine. Really opens my eyes to wines of Portugal.

  What a value here, for a wine that costs less than $10, it's got a lot to show. Raspberry jam, black cherry sauce, over top of coffee and campfire smoke. The palate is smooth, moderate acidity, along with flavors of cherry pie and plum sauce. Notes of spicy pepper, violets, smoked meats, beef drippings. Fun, grill-friendly, this would be a great "house red" for summertime get-togethers.

  Nice Portuguese blend with a backbone of Touriga Nacional, Syrah and Tinta Roriz. The wine was medium bodied with dark berry and earthy notes. Tannins seemed resolved and wine was drinking nicely.

  Good wine for the price. Medium dark red, balanced tannins and acidity, very light berries aromas.
