A good blend that has a nice hint of sweetness showing how pleasant and versatile Portuguese wine is.
Went nicely with handmade Gloucester Old Spot pork sausages and then a beef and mushroom ravioli the following evening.
Decanted for 2 hours before drinking with the sausages.
A steal at £7.99 from Majestic. — 6 years ago
Beautiful wine. It came as a complete and oh so pleasant surprise. I had no knowledge of this wine/winery and therefore had no expectations or preconceptions. It was a gift, which meant that I had not seem its price tag. The first sip made me a fan and the ones that followed solidified the admiration. Velvety, full bodied but not "overweight", nice lasting taste, neither fruity nor earthy. A pure joy. — 9 years ago

Macio, encorpado mas simples. Vale a pena como um vinho descompromissado. — 9 years ago
Vinho intenso de sabor marcante e rigido no inicio, com presença de frutas vermelhas maduras, mas preencha a boca com taninos firmes. — 10 years ago

Выпито 24.12.18 в Пильнице во время португальского Рождества. С Аней и Пауло. Уникальное вино из крайне редкого сорта винограда Alicante bouchet. Мощное (15’ алкоголя) 2011 года ,но в то же время нежное с ароматом духов. Очень достойное вино — 6 years ago
Seams heavy but leaves light - short after taste. Rich but not overwhelming. — 7 years ago
Fantastic Portuguese red blend with native varieties - rounded, juicy, berry-like, a hint of smoke, and a decadent mouthfeel. Not dazzling or super complex, but extremely comforting to drink. Insane value! — 7 years ago

The first Portuguese red I've genuinely liked a lot. Slight tingle on the tongue, good legs, reasonably priced. — 9 years ago
