Tasting | |
Still quite concentrated colour. | |
Shows some auctioned notes but with the evident focus in the presence of Touriga Nacional that marks definitively the aroma, with class and elegance. Good plants and chemical suggestions. | |
Very good in the mouth, very much elegant, well proportioned. | |
The time have not did it a dent and that is the hallmark of great wines | |
