  Kleur: Diep donkerrood Aroma / bouquet: Vol en kruidig aroma, port-achtig (druivenrassen: Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Nacional), boordevol donker fruit. Niet heel complex, wellicht NOG niet heel complex. Smaak / Afdronk: Krachtige, dik-sappige wijn. Lage zuurgraad, goede vulling, rijpe tannines, behoorlijk alcoholisch. Verleidelijke wijn, krachtig, allemansvriend. Royale lengte, maar deze mist verfijning en het raffinement. Algemeen / potentieel: Toegankelijke krachtpatser. Perfect op dronk nu. 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 10 + Smaak / Afdronk: 14 + Algemeen / potentieel: 8 = 87/100

  Color: Deep dark red Aroma / bouquet: Full and spicy aroma, port-like (grape varieties: Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Nacional), full of dark fruit. Not very complex, possibly YET not very complex Taste / Finish: Powerful, thick juicy wine. Low acidity, good filling, ripe tannins, quite alcoholic. Seductive wine, powerful, everybody's friend. Generous length, but lacks sophistication and refinement General / potential:. Accessible powerhouse. Perfect for drinking now. 50 + Color: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 10 + Taste / Finish: 14 + General / potential: 8 = 87/100

  Nice with ripefruit with soft tannins a bit port-ish, no surprise. Ready now but will last longer. Good balance and very enjoyable.

  Regular dinner group (@ JvT): Spicy bouquet. Firm amount of sweetness from very ripe fruits. Well dosed oak and very juicy. Soft tannin and friendly bitterness. Because of the friendliness I guessed this wine was from the south of Portugal. Ready now, no hurry.

  Deep red colour, wonderful on the nose, full of dark berries and earth. Long taste, ripe red berries combined with right amount of oak. An elegant bordeaux style portugese.

  Spennede nese, med bærsødme og litt krydret.
  Veldig bra smak, flott balanse, flott frukt, sjarmerende allerede, men lovende.
