Not totally impressed. it's a bit port like as you might imagine. A little sweet. Somewhat alcoholic and just a little bit too much really. Probably drinking at its best a year ago.

Monthly Tasting Group LTB 2010-09; Portugal (By EvA): Primary cherry fruits in the bouquet. Very ripe and juicy fruits on the palate. Firm acidity and tannin, also in the finish. Ok and straight forward wine.

Refined and quite classy. Berry fruit aromas. Some spice. Perfumed. Tannin still a good deal chewy, but a certain silkiness, fresh acidity and a good dollop of fruit makes it immensely enjoyable. Still reckon it has it's best year or two ahead of it though.

This is a nice wine. Some spice notes on the nose. Great structure. Very comforting wine. The tannins aren't obtrusive, but really give this wine some guts. Nice, clean fruit. Pretty impressive effort. 88-89

Mild start. Concentrated dark fruits. Soft acidity and tannin. Touch of sweetness. Completely ready now. Enjoyable, not extremely complex wine.
