1988 D’Oliveira Terrantez (2013 Bottling)
Really digging this...
Serious. Stuff.
A rich and smokey nose; honey, orange, vanilla, a trace of wintergreen.
The palate is medium/full in body; firm, but round; some zesty refreshing acidity that crashes like a waterfall onto the mid-palate and lingers in the gums, balancing the long, nutty, citrus, and enjoyable bitter finish.
Me like this Terrantez!
For $90, this is a must buy for vintage Terrantez.

Barry,
Yeap, that is what I've been saying all along!

Looks like something great to have a few of from a lean birth year in the world of wine.
