Round and pleasant, but with the right amount of zing still left to make it interesting. Typical Alentejo, always interesting with some spice and acidity riding on the broad and rich base. Subtle power keeps up even to very strong food. Excellent!

Very dark color, mineral, green pepper and some dark berries on the nose. Definitely very young and the first sip hits you with lot of alcohol, after some time it gets better and more enjoyable. Will benefit from some more time in the bottle.

Dark. Nose of aniseed liquorice, menthol and some heat. The palate is sweet black fruit, gives way to drying tannins. Needs time.
