Grabbed this off the wine list from Sete in Coimbra. Light bodied compared to other regional tintos, think a combination of Pinot noir and grenache. Medium fruit, slight rustic note, dark cherry and tart berries. First time tasting Bags grape. Paired with lamb shank.

Solidly Very Good. Other recent TNs cover this well, so I'll refer to them. I will say regarding PUTTER520's June TN about (almost too much brett) that I barely caught a whiff though the other taster did detect it more (but still not too much to distract from enjoyment).
Great choice for a mixed grill. In our case, grilled chicken with a simply pesto-based sauce and perfectly grilled bok choy with a sauce of Greek yogurt, sour cream, lemon juice, onion salt, sumac, and hazelnuts.
12.5% abv Didn't quite finish the liter!

Served chilled. Bright fruitiness, very relaxed and easy drinking (light body).

Young, fruity red wine with lots of Baga-taste. Really good bang for bucks and a really cool 1 litre bottle. Excellent wine.
