Drank a coupe of months back so only impressions from memory. Still very much alive, dark berry fruit, acidity & the mellowness of old age. I remember being astonished at how long the taste lingered. Implausible value at 12.50 Euro (a tenner) from Garrafeira Nacional in 2020 - a birth year wine for me too, and a delightful surprise esp. as this was not even the riserva bottling.
