Cuvée Viticole. Medium body. Medium acidity. Medium, fine tannins. Red fruit, cherry. Juicy and balanced. Drinkable but depth. Still probably a bit young. — 5 years ago

Noh! Vinho excelente! Me lembrou muito um bordeaux. Tanino forte, um gosto bem fechadinho com um pouco de terra. Achei pouco frutado. — 6 years ago
Huge amount of Aroma here... Bacon fat sizzling in an iron skillet covered from the elements by an old, lighting struck barn.
Black pepper, Maui Xmas pepper berry, cherry skin, plum skin, dried alpine berries. Flint, sea derived saline.
Finishing with tangerine like acidity, pine resin and vegetal garden stalk

That was fun. A mutt that is predominantly Mencia but has a lot of other stuff because it was big. — 7 years ago

8000 botellas chano villar (parcela). Podria vender por $180. Our cost $115. Interesting nose, unpleasant at first, lots of mineral, cassis, blackberries, high tannins. Drink chilled. Beaujolais like in color and nose. I like it. 8/10 — 12 years ago

Great summer wine. Not your average vinho verde. Much more complex, with a lot of character. Takes you non-stop to the beach. Very fresh, and easy to drink, with notes of citrus and fresh grass. — 7 years ago
