TN: NV Quinta do Roriz Reserva
Posted: Tue Jun 19, 2007 9:20 pm
My last bottle of this one.
The color is still dark ruby with slight tawny edges. The nose is simple, mainly on plums and cocoa, some spices with time. On the palate, it has integrated much of its tannins, still the acidity is sharp and the fruit very ripe. The finale is average, still on fruits and some spices. This wine has integrated well all of its components to the point where it has gain a balance. Though no complexity is really showing. At 30$ can I'd say it is a fair value but I don't know if it will gain complexity or just dry as it still have some time to age in the bottle. 16/20
MODERATOR EDIT: The vintage of this was listed as "200?" the last digit was missing so it was listed as NV for the Database.
