Quinta do Zambujeiro Tinto

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：3461

The 2008 Tinto, with just “Zambujeiro” on the label, is the winery’s flagship. This was a cask sample tasted only at the winery. Perhaps a touch atypical for the winery, it is nonetheless very fine and may be one of the most charming wines Zambujeiro has ever made. It doesn’t have the depth of some of the others, but it has a sunny freshness and a certain mouthwatering succulence on the finish, fine structure and an easy-to-drink, refreshing appeal. It may yet turn out better than even I think at the moment. It is immensely appealing. Drink 2014-2024. The vertical of the flagship estate Tinto just labeled “Zambujeiro” was poured for me at the winery in Alentejo, cementing in my mind the place of this boutique at or near the top of Alentejo’s hierarchy. On any short list compilation for the best wineries in the region, this one has to appear. In this report, no one had better results in the region, although Quinta do Mouro equaled them. The stunning 2007-2009 trilogy of wines – not all released; the 08 and 09 not yet bottled – will be as good a trilogy of wines in these three vintages as exists in the region.Importer: World Wine Headquarters, tel.
