TN: 1999 Quinta da Trovista Douro -- Vinhos Oscar Quevedo

Post by Andy Velebil »

I've never had this one that I recalled, and since it's always educational to try older wines, I bought one from Oscar when I visited him at his Quinta in October. Light bodied dried out fruit, yet still tannic, with a good amount of green pepper throughout and a short finish, this bottle shows past it's prime. Based on this bottle, I'd recommend to drink this wine soon.
