Kicks off with a pretty violet note, followed quickly by warmed plum puree and blackberry compote. The finish is laced up with toasted vanilla and dark tea accents. Aragonez, Touriga Nacional and Jaén. Drink now through 2025. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 4,166 cases made, 333 cases imported.
88 Points, Best Buy, Wine Enthusiast
This wood-aged wine has firm tannins and layers of black fruits. The toasty edge and dense nature of the wine are good promises for aging. It should be kept until 2023. –ROGER VOSS
