DO Douro, Red, 2011, 91 Points
Rubi intenso e violáceo. Terroso profundo, frutos silvestres e ameixa em licor, tosta negra de grafite e especiaria, resinado de esteva e nota floral doce. Austero, grande, mastigável, taninos com enorme poder lavante, momentaneamente secantes, com potencial de grande guarda e melhor mesa. Sucrosidade grata.
