TN: 2000 Quinta do Crasto Old Vine Reserva

[Scott Kipping]

I finally found some scribbled down notes. Coincidentally I drank this around Oct 20 too. I can not come close to Andy's beautiful review, but here goes. On the nose stewed rhubarb, green onion, wet earth and some menthol heat. The palate has a great mouthfeel. Like Andy, I got a powerful blast of red fruits, then overlapping layers of smoke and tar..This is one of the best Reserva's I've had. I have bought this wine in quantity since 1997. 2000 and 2001 are my favourites
