I like it. Fairly dry with some tasty tannins for that good mouth feel. It's a good wine — 7 years ago

Saca de Primavera from 04/17 with the new golden bottle design. Fabulous notes of sea salt, apples and olives on the nose. Lots of body and depth in mouth, extremely dry and tangy and some surprising nuttiness. One of the best finos I've had. Only 4-5 years under flor but wow, it's got it all, extremely smooth drinking and still great after 2 days with even more tang. Club Gourmet at El Corte Ingles in Spain has it for 15 euros, snap it up! Fantastic value for money. — 8 years ago

1965 Baga from Barraida (Agueda), Casal Mor 'Caves Primavera' is still made to this day! Founded in 1944.

So, now the wine!

Color of tawny and brick, absolutely as expected at this age. The cork was whole when pulled via Durand, a little wet and very dark.

The nose was sous bois, crushed fall leaves, dried chipped beef, citrus peel, dried flowers and red fruits.

The palate was elegant and indeed tasted Portuguese, with some notes and textures that reminded me of old Barbaresco, Rioja and even Burgundy in its purity and finnesse.

Further time won't help this wine, but to taste this history, this snapshot of time, is one of the reasons I love wine so much.

Pretty light straw color. Apples, lemon, minerality, oak. medium+ mouthfeel, medium+ finish. Feels like some light carbonation on your tongue. Paired well with pasta primavera. — 9 years ago

Red fruit on the nose, raspberry’s. Love the fruit on the pallet with a nice long mineral like finish. Was rated 97 by decanter. Maybe a bit high, but for pop and pour, this bottle is pretty dang delicious. — 6 years ago

Delectable do not appear to recognise this cuvée which is a Pinot Noir from the Primavera vineyard. Has been used in blends previously but in 2015 the fruit was good enough to warrant an Individual Vineyard cuvée. 100% whole bunch the nose has this spicy stinging nettle herbal slightly peppery character. Spicy cherry vibrant fruit comes thru on the palate with oak taking a back seat. An intriguing Pinot Noir. — 9 years ago
