TN: 2009 Vinhas do Tua Douro red

Post by Rune EG »

Unknown Douro red-producer, consumed during lunch at Porto-restaurant before the 2012 FTLOP Harvest Tour
Decanted 1 hr. 16 % alcohol! Medium to dark burgundy colour. Fresh aroma of earth and berries (kind of Alentejo-style). Medium to full body. Powerful (too much!), pepper (possibly the alcohol), very strong tannins, too much acid medium length aftertaste. 85 pts.
