Dark ruby in color with a purplish rim.
Sweet nose of blackberries, sweet cherries, black currants, oak, vanilla, licorice, cloves, spices, chocolates, mocha, coffee, cocoa, tobacco and black pepper.
Full bodied and bold with medium plus acidity and long legs.
Sweet on the palate with blackberries, black currants, cherry pie, figs, raisins, vanilla, oak, licorice, cloves, spices, alcohol, chocolates, tobacco, mocha, earth, peppercorn and coffee.
Long sweet finish.
This portogese Port is always enjoyable. Well balanced with nice complexity.
Not too complex, but very enjoyable by itself. Showing a bit too much alcohol on the palate and better a bit chilled.
I paired it with chocolate covered pomegranates.
20% alcohol by volume.

Had the tempranillo a few months ago, this time it’s the grenache. It’s still wickedly young but putting out loads of cherry and watermelon juiciness and then immediately takes a turn into that rocks district funk. Always impressive how that shines through even when these wines are fresh. — 7 years ago

Smell like a Dr Pepper but with none of the additives (obviously). Skrate cherry cola. Cranberry and cutting acidity. Supple and generous but light and pristine at the same time. Vg — 8 years ago
I love this wine! It is always so balanced. Extremely smooth with very little tannins showing, being so young. A wine that never disappoints no matter the vintage. — 9 years ago
Great subtle gamay. I've always loved this wine (produced organically with no added yeast). I first tried this wine around 1992. Loved it then (bought a case) and it's still great today. This family knows what's it's doing with this wine. — 10 years ago
