Picked this up while in Portugal as I've never heard of this particular wine from Domingos Alves de Sousa. The label says this is a field blend of more than 20 different varieties of 80 year old vines. A nose of tanned leather and dark berries. The palate was a bit soft at first then the tannins started to pick up with air. A combination of dark berries with a tartness in the background. A moderate finish kept my attention. No idea where this lands in their line-up, but it would make a good cellar defender to help keep your hands off your bottles of Abandonado.

Hard to find out my way too. Their Ports are even harder.
