About

Ratings:

92

This wine’s bright red currant flavors are mouthwatering in their combination of freshness and schist-driven mineral tension. It’s full-bodied and rich with a gamey note and lush accents of purple flowers. The Douro in bloom.

91 Wine Enthusiast

This is the second wine from this great Douro estate. Rich in tannins and with a smooth texture, the wine is a proper second wine in that it will age more quickly than the senior wine. Blackberry fruits and acidity balance the already softening tannins. Drink from 2023. Roger Voss

90 Wine Spectator

This wine offers nice elegance and purity to crushed red plum and fresh boysenberry flavors bound together by fresh, tangy acidity, Details of white pepper, mineral, anise and mineral mark the supple, moderately tannic finish. Drink now through 2024.
