Lavradores de Feitoria Quinta da Meruge, Douro, Portugal

The 2014 Meruge is mostly a Tinta Roriz, but 20% of the juice is a field blend from old vines (60+ years). It was aged in new French oak for 12 months. Showing some of the funk I tend to find on these wines, this does have some good news. In a very difficult vintage, it holds its own, showing reasonable concentration for its level and a fresh feel. There isn't a lot of power or intensity, to be sure, and it drinks rather well right now. Don't expect it to reward long cellaring, but it can certainly hold a few years.
