TN: NV Quinta do Roriz Reserva

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.

Please add the last digit to the vintage in the title Frederick as I am very interested to see which it actually is. Thank you sir.

By the way, can wine be mailed legally inside Canada from one individual to another?

I am a big Roriz fan and have just purchased some `04s.
