Posted: 11:35 Sat 02 May 2015
Touriga Nacional single varietal, 18% alcohol. Decanted off only a little fine sediment. Deep red colour, opaque centre. Muted on the nose, a little dusty blackcurrant cordial, flowers and some black chocolate. On the palate this shows lots of dust, parma violets and soft blackcurrant. The tannins are very finely grained and combine to give a light-weight palate. A touch of heat shows on theaftertaste, then a long sweet finish of brambles and black chocolate. 86/100. Drunk 25-Mar-15.
