A little hot, very ripe fruit. Hasn't taken on some of the characteristics you expect from older port. — 12 years ago
Youthful, with power and concentration in the nose and palate. A very traditional styled Meao showing the typical style of this wine. The nose shows a mix of red and blue berry fruits, subtle spices, and barely a trace of oak. These wines are always masterfully aged in oak to impart just the right amount of oxygen and wood character. The palate is well balanced, youthful and medium+ in intensity and a fresh, persistent finish. This is just as good or better, depending on your tastes of course, of the recent string of many excellent Meao and reminded me of the 2009.
Tasted at Quinta do Vale Meao 10/16/2015, tasted at opening and 1.5 hours later. #meao #dourovalley — 11 years ago
Epic! If only all ports could be this sublime. No edge, pure smoothness! Mouth full of baked apples (and sediment, but who's complaining). The bar has been set, but never may be reached again... — 12 years ago
Another great wine from the Douro region of Portugal — 11 years ago
Fruits from the highest part of the Douro, an elegant wine - this sub region is the hottest, driest and stretches to the Spanish border, it produces some of the finest wines from the region — 12 years ago
CR Au
The nose tells you immediately this wine is a dry blend with solid tannins. Complex balance of cherries and gooseberries on one hand, with dried fruit (rasins, prunes, apricot?) on the other. Very dry finish. Will go well with most food. — 11 years ago
