12.5% alcohol. From Portugal.
TASTING NOTES:
Dark rose red color with a jammy raspberry Shiraz-esque nose. Black currants, blackberry and plum on the palate. Thin. Mid-palate and finish sort of disappear.
SCORE & RECOMMENDATION:
84 PTS
I've raved on and on about how great Portuguese Douros are but this one has come up short. Ordinary and not special. This one is a pass.
That's too bad, I am always looking for good Portuguese varietals.
