TN: 2005 Rio Bom Reserva Douro Red

Post by David Spriggs »

2005 Rio Bom Reserva Douro Red (Quinta do Mourao / S. Leonardo) - Decanted for 4 hours. Still quite dark color. The nose! Yes that nose. Absolutely classic Douro. Love it. Still some tannins in the finish, but they are fine and personally I like that structure. Really satisfying on the palate. Rich, but restrained. A beautiful Douro wine! No worries on putting this down for another 10 years. You can drink now with a decant. A sublime Douro wine! 95 points
