Colour: dark plum red Nose: plum, raspberry jam, blackberry. Plum paste. Juniper berry. Rich, with lots of ripe red and black fruit. Sweet spice. Palate: plum, raspberry, blackberry jam. Juniper berry. Sweet spice, maybe a touch of toasty oak. Fresh, slightly carbonic. Some savouriness, maybe a touch of liquorice. Fresh berry-like acidity. Still very fresh and fruity given the age. Not enormously complex, but good value. Medium to full bodied, 13% alcohol. Grapes: Castelão, Carmarate, Tinta miúda, Touriga nacional.
