Robust plum and bramble flavours, smooth tannins but cloying vanilla essence on the finish. Think half decent house red at a local restaurant - perfectly adequate if lacking elegance.

Dark ruby. Aromas of plums plus cedar and sun baked Portuguese undergrowth. The palate has rich plum, blackcurrant and sun dried, raisiny fruit too plus some spice. Medium body with integrated tannins, just lacks the depth of flavour to be a very good wine,

Bit thin, uninteresting. Normally really rate Esporao wines but I guess this was v cheap.
