Wine Review: This wine was one of the true finds that I found at this years Portugal wine trade tasting in Boston. This dark ruby colored wine opens with an attractive cherry and plum bouquet. On the palate, this medium bodied wine is very nicely balanced, smooth, and soft with really tasty dark berry fruit flavors. The finish is dry and lingers nicely. This food friendly wine would pair quite nicely with veal parmigianna. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Deep red colour. Richly fruited with spicy blackberry and mulberry notes. Elegant lingering flavour.
