TN: 2007 Casa Ferreirinha Quinta da Leda Douro red
Posted: Wed May 24, 2017 4:52 am
Dinner at Presuntaria Transmontana, Gaia.
Last time I posted a tasting note for 2007 Quinta da Leda was in 2011, when I gave it 91 pts. Now six years later I am giving it 94 pts (and please note with very short decanting time).
Decanted 0.5-1.0 hr during the meal. Dark red colour. Aroma was very deep with a complexity consisting of berries and terroir/minerals.
Full body. Powerful in a subdued way, and quite elegant. Well-structured and well balanced acidity/sweetness with a long aftertaste. Delicious Douro red. 94 pts.
