About

Rating:

93

Foot-trodden grapes and wood aging make this an impressively opulent wine that is built by a strong grip of tannins and rich berry fruits. The dense texture and powerful fruitiness indicate a wine that can age. Drink from 2022.

Product Description:

"Quinta dos Murças Margem results from a plot located on the margin (’Margem’) of the Douro River, facing south, which characterizes the vineyard’s terroir, and from low yielding vines, that produce intensely flavoured grapes. Deep with violet hues. Intense and lively nose with dominant ripe black fruit, such as blackberry and cassis, balsamic aromas and soft spicy notes from oak barrel aging. Concentrated, with ripe tannins that are well integrated, which, along with its acidity, offer a good volume, body and freshness. Persistent finish dominated by ripe fruit aromas, with potential for great longevity in the bottle."-Winery
