  10/6/2018 - Tenuta Stefan Likes this wine: 93 Points

  Vale da Capucha 2012 Vinha Teimosa Tinto, 14 % alcohol.
  Bottle in perfect shape.
  85 % Touriga Nacional and 15 % Tinta Roriz.
  
  Young, dark and dense colour.
  Lots of herbs and blueberries on the nose, and some green notes and menthe. Liquorice appears after a while.
  Lovely chewy tannins and good acidity. This full bodied wine offers herbs, liquorice and dark fruit. Nice minerality and good balance. Quite long finish.
  
  A nice effort !! I really like this wine!
  If served blind I think I might end up in Bordeaux and probably St Estephe.
  93 - 94p
