November 5, 2023 - Dark magenta fading to red with a thin watery edge. Dark and red fruits, vanilla and herbs on the nose. Full-bodied, strong tannins coat the cheeks, low-medium acidity, and flavors more dark fruit and plumb lead to a medium-length drying finish.
Perfectly fine. As with most Portuguese red wines I have tried over the last several years, it seems to be a decent wine at a very good price point. But it isn't something that wants me to pour a second glass.
