85 Mark Squires - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"The 2005 BAFARELA is a blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroca. This is fruity and simple, with a bit of a Beaujolais feel. It is light and grapey, but there is enough structure here to give it some vibrancy, a little bit of a sunny feel and a little grip. It can be pleasing and tasty, but the fruit flavors recede quickly, and it is a bit thin. Drink now-2011."
