A little spicy — yum! — 3 years ago
The oak is quite prominent though not overbearing initially, and subsides gradually to commingle with ripe black fruits, clove, anise, dark chocolate, dried herbs, and slight hint of barnyard. Full body. Savory and lush palate but the fruits feels youthful than the nose suggested. Vivid acidity and still solid tannins. Will continue to get better in the next 5 years also.
This bottle serves a reminder that I need to drink more wines from Portugal, one of my favorite countries to visit. — 4 years ago
One of these rosada or rosata de Garnacha that I've been obsessed with since visiting Catyluna.
This one is really juicy - actually best at cool room temp instead of chilled, a light pink floral fragrance, but a nice big mouthful and mouth feel.
Really luscious, with the lightest hints of tannins and such a good acid balance. This bottle really shows that rosé can be elegant and elevated and not just a quaffer.
This might even get better with age?

Troipical fruits, sweetnes, good acidity in the palate — 6 years ago
Blend of Tinta Roriz, Touriga National and Alfrocheiro Pretoria. Dark ruby/black color. Aromas of cooked red fruit, dried herbs and roasted nuts. More black fruit on the palate with notes of dark chocolate, tobacco and baking spices. Medium (smoky) finish and body. Nicely structured with balanced acidity and a hint of chewy tannins.

Very nice acidity, length is above average. Fruit shows nicely, however not too complex. Balance and intensity are spot on. Really enjoyed this wine. — 4 months ago
