Bendito Destino

Destino Fifth Empire

Douro Red Blend 2019

Dark purple. Dry. Medium plus tannins. Med acid. 13.5% abv. Dark berries, plum. Ripe. A bit of that Douro funk that I’m looking for, but not quite there. Med plus body. Would do well with food. — 7 months ago

Las Sabias Viñas Viejas - Pie Franco Tinto de Toro 2015

At 16.5% I was expecting it to knock my head off with the alcohol overpowering any other tastes. Pleasantly surprised at what a good Toro this is — 5 years ago

Vinho Verde Loureiro Alvarinho 2021

Vinho Branco 2021 - very good, smooth buttery mouthfeel but still has a crisp taste. Strong enough to go with spicy meaty dishes even for a white. — 9 months ago

Albillo Mayor 2022

Give it 30 minutes. Saline, stone fruit, touch of oak — a year ago

El Buen Rollo Tinto de Toro 2019

"on the palate, El Buen Rollo is a slow burner. Like the grizzled old farm hand who favors the slow approach. Then suddenly the bowl of reappears, coming right at you, tannins forward with a cloud of florals." — 3 years ago

Bendito Reserva Merlot 2023

Had the 2023 in December of 2024. Really enjoyed this one. Some spice. Some fruit. Lighter bodied cab sauv. Would drink again in a heartbeat. — a year ago
