I had this at select oyster with Mario and Robin — 7 months ago
Had this at chef Avillez’s Bairro in Lisbon’s Chiado neighborhood. First time trying a Dao DOC wine, and it was splendid. Medium bodied, dark fruit and peppery. A nice contrast to the lighter vino verde’s I’ve had a lot of in Portugal. A bottle of this in front of me would be dangerous. — 2 years ago
Was searching for montepulciano d’bruzzo and this was recommended as a lower price point alternative. LOVES IT — 2 months ago
Nice-cional Woo-riga! This was just an amazing wine with a full body and great taste profile. Noses black cherries, vanilla, meat, spices, peppers, saline. Taste is the definition of chewy tannins. Bloody complex flavours - so much going on for this. Just enjoy this!! — 4 months ago
I’m not too fond of the blandness in a lot of Portuguese reds, but this style plays to its strong suits: unabashed joy in a chilled red, with a fine grained berry texture & an inky dark cherry fruit palate. Nothing complicated but something a bit more elegant & long. — 10 months ago
Beautiful Dao red — meaty and earthy yet refined. It took some time to breathe but delicious with my Christmas Eve meal.
This winery also makes great Portuguese olive oil. — 2 months ago
Red fruits, plush oak, good body and length, impressive. €13.99 Lidl — 7 months ago
Pretty deep ruby with medium wide pink rim . Quite closed and mineral focused nose , with grafite , wet stone , dark cherry , blackberry and touch of toast . On the palate quite elegant dark fruits , with dark cherry , blackberry , grafite and cacao . Medium bodied with very fresh quite intense acidity and gritty , quite dry tannins . Medium length crushed rock and grafite tinged finish. This needs more time , better in 3-4 years and will last well a further 5-8 — 8 months ago
