Anyone know anything about this one? I'll take any info, even in general about the producer.
Appears as a basic ruby. Out of my step-dad's house--expect been there for many years.
Its been stored upright, very depressed cork, looks like a tawny with sediment in the bottom so I expect nothing; but will in due time try it.

Sociedad dos Vinhos do Alto Corgo sounds like a co-op - not one I've ever come across. Any date anywhere?

Thanks---no date, no back label. I will tong the bottle and see what the cork has on it if anything.

That looks like a T-stopper to me so tonging may not give you anything.
I'm also intrigued by the sello. I have never seen a sello like that before.

Indeed. It would be good to see a clearer photo of the selo.

Sadly, this was completely oxidized and mostly undrinkable...flavors included orange and slight nuttiness but a dominating pine resin spirit just crushed any possible enjoyment....not meant to be aged that long and stored poorly so did not expect much.
