General

Tasting Notes:GOLD MEDAL at the 2006 Alentejo Wine Lovers Competition. “Deep coloured red. The first aromas are balsamic, before the evidence of red fruit and cassis on a floral background. Notes of humid earth with a caramel patine and sweet and sour spices as well as coffee. In the mouth it is very young, still seeking smoothness which time will bring, it reveals some vigour which is present in the medium finish.91Points.” Anibal Coutinho in 200 Vinhos para 2006.
