2016 Baga from Luis Gomes is more mineral than fruit at first, then the fruit opens up in the glass. Great with food, especially hearty seafood and lighter meats and chicken. — 5 years ago

Грибы, подлесок, сталь, пластилин, пеламуши, перезрелая ежевика, пьяная вишня, мятая малина, тертая листва, ароматные травы. Вначале возраст берет верх, но чуть позже красиво уравновешивается зрелой сочностью и хвойной свежестью. Интересно. — 8 years ago

Interesting wine from the late-ripening Baga grape. Not as tannic and austere as I thought but quite elegant, with high acids, small red berries, and some saltiness. Excellent. — 4 years ago

No doubt about its excellence. Old-school aromas, from long-aging in old wood and bottle. Not as ethereal as the best Brunellos and more earthly, but just as fine. — 5 years ago

Random Monday night but @Levon Kololyan and I just took down this whole bottle! Yummmmm. Luscious and well balanced, great with our steak dinner but not overpowering on its own. The 2011 is drinking perfectly — 6 years ago

part of the monthly threesome from
cheers.co.il wine club.
wines i didn't pick but are supposedly choosed according to my taste.

i let my son cover them in tinfoil then i open and try to guess.

this one is a north Portuguese white blend made from three indigenous varieties :
bical, cercial and sercialinho

12.5% abv

medium + to full body with mostly citrus variety and hinted stone fruit.
it's power and lack of tropics made me guess it's 🇫🇷 sauvignon blanc. but its so sharp i was thinking chablis is another option.
it's so balanced i thought maybe some oak sorted it all out.
i was confused but impressed.

impressive punch all in all.

paired well with medicore Asian take away of sushi, pad thai and plain white rice.

great vfm (around 100 nis) — 4 years ago

Ликёрный аромат медовых пряников, топленного шоколада, сиропа из черешни. Насыщенно. Полное тело, во вкусе шоколад, кофе, кислая вишня, пыль, карамелизованное яблоко. Очень интенсивно, очень кислотно. Непростое, интересное "большое" вино. 16,5/20 — 7 years ago

Blend of 5 different grapes from coastal Bairrada and inland Dão. Quite a bit of Brett on the nose (which I like). Meat, game, leather, mushrooms, prunes, and blackcurrants, with soft but gripping tannins and still lively acidity on the palate. — 8 years ago
