  Tannins: too forward and imbalanced (too much for the fruit)
  Fruits: light
  Finish: gone before it starts.
  
  Easy to drink but thoroughly unsatisfying. Regret getting 6. Tried over a year or two - no improvment.

  This is a fantastic wine for the money, just £7 here in the UK. Medium ruby colour. Plums and jammy fruit on the nose. Dark berry fruits on the palate, so smooth and very long. This demonstrates the quality from Portugal and its great value for money. Well deserves the 90 score I've given it. Even better on the second evening.

  Started high acid & cherries like an Italian red, but softened over time. Very nice, easy drinking but a little short.
