2 hour decant. 12.9%. Só Touriga Nacional. An old TN from Pellada - what a treat - and thanks to JC1265 for this gift. Sweet and somehow a bit sickly and chemically at pop time, this came round quite nicely - hints of brick around the edges of a clear, quite light purple - flowers and grape in a fairly tight nose - hints of jam and brown sugar - red cherries, sour cherries - this wasn't appealing at first sip, but I'm starting to enjoy it more as the glass empties - fair finish.
