2020 Antonio Marques da Cruz Encostas d'Aire Encruzado e Arinto Serradinha 89 Points

Walkaround tasting. Rich and ripe with nearly sweet hints, but still easily staying savory. Long, intriguing finish seems nearly exotic.

2019 Da Cruz e Teles Beira Atlântico COZs vo-Vital vo
Portugal, Beiras, Beira Atlântico
Walkaround tasting. Dark color from lots of skin contact, also giving a clearly rich while oxidative character. Certainly interesting and maybe worth cellaring, but not my preferred style of wine.
