About

Rating:

95

"Judicious use of Cabernet brings blackcurrant and line to this blend, lovely length, intensity of fruit, balance. Some dusty tannins, mineral notes and red fruits, combined with elegant oak and a dry finish. A versatile and sophisticated wine; good with food or alone. Heady black fruits on the nose, spicy, velvety and chocolatey on the palate, with good length and freshness for all its concentration."

Product Description:

"An annual challenge for the winemakers to find four grape varieties from that harvest which, combined, show a complex and well balanced wine with distinctive character and flavour.

Clear deep ruby colour. Exuberant red berry fruit aromatics of Touriga Franca with mocha notes from Syrah. Dense and compact palate, with bright fruit and integrated toasty oak. Well structured with a long finish." - Winery
