Tasting

A great classic from Bairrada and Portugal. A wine imposing, seductive, alive and still very young.

Dishes of red meat and game roasted or stewed not very spicy/seasoned.

Aromatically reminds us of spices and aromas balsamic.

In the mouth a great body, well present tannins but silky. A memorable wine.
