TN: 2011 Casa Ferreirinha Antonia Adelaide Ferreira Douro red

Post by Rune EG »

Decanted 4.5 hrs. Dark red with a light rim. Powerful aroma of berries and oak with minerals in the background. All in an appealing way. Full body. Powerful taste with the nice combination of oak/berries/minerals as we find in Douro. Well-structured Douro red. As for the acidity/sweetness-balance we found this wine to be a bit drier than the 2011 Quinta da Leda Douro red, and also having a bit more acidity. But still a very nice Douro red. Long aftertaste. 92 pts.
