Gripping on the finish, this tightly wound young wine spent 12 months in French oak. The texture is oak-softened, but the palate shows ripe and fresh fruit and there are attractive red and black berry notes on the nose. The ripe tannins provide support, there is grip on the finish, and the wine overall has an elegant feel. It is very pleasing, and reasonably priced. The Touriga Nacional seems to be dominating the wine at the moment, delivering some of those sweet ‘n’ sour plum notes on the juicy finish. It does eventually flatten out with a couple of hours of air, but it is very nice drinking in the meanwhile.
