TN: 2016 Mar de Lisboa Vinho Tinto

Post by David Spriggs »

Wow. This basic wine from Chocapalha is amazing for $9.99 and free shipping. Very dark color. The nose is a bit earthy-funky. I hope it cleans up tomorrow. The palate is spectacular. Intense black fruits and really good structure. Seems like Tinta Roriz, but drinking very well for such a young wine. Parabéns Sandra Tavares.

The nose was much cleaner the next day... so my score is:
89 points
