  August 7, 2021 - Alicante Bouschet, Touriga Nacional, Aragonez, Syrah, Petit Verdot, Tinta Miuda - what a unique, striking blend. Elderberry, ponzu, plumerias, raspberry reduction and stone. A medium-long finish, with a full body and enough agility; there’s staying power. Fine tannins that a in the back. Drink now - 2029.

  November 30, 2020 - If you like that taste of new oak, then this would be a good bottle for you.
  Shoulda bought the Chianti.
  $20 at Costco.
  I figured a price as this for Portuguese wine would end up better than this.
  Don't get me wrong, this is quality, it just has new oak to ruin its quality.
  It would describe it as Kiwi tar with some of the bitter of new oak with too much of that crappy vanilla.
  
  I can't diss this wine too badly, I just detest this oak taste.
  
  To take the edge off, and enjoy more of the fuit, serve at 50 degrees.
