  13.5% alcohol. I'm new to Portuguese wines (especially reds), so take this review with a grain of salt.
  
  Medium intensity plum red in the glass. Broad nose on the 2nd day, aromatics do not overpower. Good dry balance, with not too much acidity and nice mineral elements (which I can't isolate). Chianti-like in mouth, but with somewhat greater depth and stone fruit elements. Maybe.... A hint of almond? Anyway, great medium-intensiy structure that fades well with food (in this case, perfectly complement to pizza). I really enjoyed this on both day 1 and day 2, and recommend it!
