We moved on to the 1997 Ramos Pinto Reserva "Duas Quintas" and this was double decanted about 2 hours before we started drinking it. This started out a bit thin and not showing a whole lot. What I would say was a decent middle of the road Douro. By the time I had a last glass about 3 hours later it was finally starting to come alive with some aged fruit and better balance. I know the next time I open one to give it more time before finishing the bottle. 89+
