A cooler vintage in the Douro. And for the first time, stems were used during fermentation has created and strict and aromatic version combining rich red berries with spice with and crushed stone flavours. Still tight but showing great promise. 94 p. — 9 years ago

At the price I consider this to be a good bye. Again not a fine wine but a very strong performing house wine. A little on the peppery side and somewhat thinner than California wines that many people are used to. Other than that a pleasant nose and a pleasant finish. No major complaints. — 7 years ago
Oakiness, tabacco, scotch whiskey on the nose. Nice spice — 8 years ago
What a value. Nose of leather and dark fruits with spice. Awesome density on the palate with a great fruity finish and an earthy attack. It’s a bit like a port that isn’t sweet. — 8 years ago
Great price. Very bold. — 10 years ago
Great blend of Cabernet and Touriga Nacional. Such a luscious wine 👌 — 11 years ago
Dark ruby red core with red edges. Beautiful nose, medium to full bodied, elegant red fruits, cherry, sauve tannins, with good acidity, long and persistent vintage. Classy wine. — 13 years ago
Perfect in every way! Yo — 7 years ago
Sour black plums, blueberries, bergamot, wild mint leaves, cocoa, nutmeg, charred hamburger, granite dust, and lithium grease. The acidity is bright enough to cut down the aggressiveness of the tannins. Balanced but displays character throughout the finish. Everything seems to fall in place on the palate. Strong fruit and solid winemaking. — 8 years ago
The Portuguese are teaching me at least that blending many vines with passion can produce exquisite experiences: refined, good body, smooth Ramon’s for a young wine, robust color l, varying aromas-really changing constantly!!! — 9 years ago
Meao Tawny NV (1999 stock)
From stocks that Francisco is experimenting with, these Tawny wines may or may not turn into a commercial bottling. From what I gather with discussing it with Luisa they are still tinkering with the blend and the style they want to represent as a Meao Tawny.
Caramel and roasted nuts jump from the glass and fan out over the thicker textured wine that adds oxidized notes of orange and ginger. If anything for me as good as this is it could use a little more freshness.
Tasted at Quinta do Vale Meao 10/16/2015.
