Before we take a sip, we must embrace this bouquet! The bouquet was amazing. Full of blackberries, cedar and oak. On the palet, this full bodied wine is on the dryer side but paired well with a Tuscan pizza! I guess it comes down to what you eat it with?! The Italians are the wine experts but the Portuguese do a great job! — 3 years ago

Vinho muito intenso, que fez eu dar uma boa nota, mas a Silvia não gostou. A cor é bem escura, aroma de vinho jovem apesar de 4 anos, com sabor de ervas e madeira, álcool se destaca no cheiro e na boca, onde arde um pouco. Deixa um bom rastro. — 3 years ago

This wine has a beautiful, rich salmon pink color. There are bubbles aplenty, which dissipate quickly. The nose features bright strawberry and cherry aromas, along with a nice yeasty element. The palate shows citrus in the form of lemon zest and a light touch of grapefruit. It is as dry as a bone, as the expression goes. Inhaling a bit with the sip nearly takes away the breath. It is an outstanding version of Italian bubbles done in the metodo classico. You may know that as methode champenoise. — a year ago
Muito bom com meu carbonara!!!! — 4 years ago
Really terrific surprise. Portuguese Shiraz? Beautiful aromas of dark red cherry and plums with a hint of eucalyptus. Red fruit flavors with hints of blackberry. Ruby red color and medium finish. Great! Revisited in May 2022. Same notes apply. Nice balance. Revisited again in March 2023. Still quite good. — 4 years ago
