The wine that includes Syrah in a broad blend of otherwise Douro varieties, is generous and brightly textured. Its ripe tannins and black currant aroma have touches of spice from wood aging and a good layer of acidity to give freshness. Drink from 2028.

Ripe Damson plums, licorice, dried hibiscus and black cherries on the nose, with a medium to full body, fine smooth tannins and a ripe, juicy finish. Firm and well framed. Delicious now, but can hold for a few more years.

Product Description:
"The nose is intense, revealing floral aromas and ripe red fruits. Beautiful notes of wood are complemented by spices and dark chocolate. On the palate, it is concentrated, with expressive fruity notes and a very evident freshness. The finish is long and complex, with tannins that balance the wine exceptionally."-Winery
