Decant: Pop 'n' pour - 40% very old mixed vines, 37% Touriga Nacional, 23% Touriga Franca. Sourced from Quinta da Cavadinha (53%), Quinta do Retiro (28%) and Quinta da Telhada (19%).
Very dark, tiny transparent rim. Tobacco and chocolate on the sour cherry nose. Tannins grip quickly on entry, giving a dry edge to the fruit. Powerful palate presence, pretty impressive. The tannins dominate the aftertaste before releasing a bubble-gum sweetness that drives a long and powerful finish. 93-95. 93 points
