Finca La Moura

Marqués de Toro Single Vineyard Mencia 2012

Rustic, old world red. The nose shows leather, crushed cranberry, eucalyptus, cigar box, and menthol. The palate is dry with tobacco, leather, dried cranberry, cherry reduction, new oak, sage, and plum. Medium tannins, medium minus alcohol, and medium plus acid. Despite its age, it needs decanting or at least sitting in the glass for a while. Tart, dry, and well balanced. This is a fantastic value wine. — 5 years ago

And earthy almost unbaked biscuits smell comes off of this wine. Very cool and smooth with muted tannins and flavors. Easy on the front of the tongue but with well structured fruit on the back. Not jammy, not overly ripe, earthy and smoky notes to it. Really fantastic wine for the price! — 8 years ago

2014 vintage - lots of lemon/lime and orange blossoms. Some light effervescence and good acidity. From the Basto region of Vinho Verde, for what it's worth Delectable. — 10 years ago

Marqués de Toro Finca La Moura Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

A very fun wine! Step out of the box and do not think anything like "a California Cab".
This single vineyard Cabernet from Spain is smooth, presents a long finish, showcasing herbs and acidity more than fruit. James Suckling rated this at 91. Grapes from 40-60
Year old Vines, dark fruits on fore palate, medicinal, mushrooms, potpourri, herbs on midpalate following through the finish. I pick up a lot of milk chocolate on the nose but does not transcend to palate.

Quinta da Raza

Azal 2018

For $13.00 its a perfect summer time pour.
Winery & K&L notes as follows,

Incredibly hard to stop drinking. The lychee and mango nose is fantastic, but it's really the crunchy and tropical flavors on the finish that demand the next sip. BBQ's and pool parties could all use this juice. Soft and easy yet still mouthwatering, this is hedonism at its finest - Which is basically why we're all here, right
Located in the relatively warmer Basto sub-zone of the Vinho Verde, Quinta da Raza is making some delicious, original examples of Vinho Verde, exploring grape varieties beyond the usual array of grapes in the region. In this case, Azal is the second most widely planted varietal in Minho (Vinho Verde) region. It is unusual to see varietal bottling. This is a lip smacking wine, you can see that this varietal brings the zip to Vinho Verde blends. It is not all bracing with acidity; there are some expressive citrus and chilled tropical tones, minerality, and a faint fizz that the wines are famous for. A fun alternative to the classic blends from the region.

We exchanged notes on the K&L staff reviews. If they rave about a bottle, you can take their recco's to the bank.

Mara Moura

Bastardo Rosé

Bastardo doesn’t sound like an appealing grape, but in the case of this wine it is! Really nice rosado from Martin Codax. Very pale pink color, delicate fruit and floral notes, bone dry and fresh! — 8 years ago

9.1

Quinta de Val Boa - Vinho Verde 2013 - One of my favorite and untypical Vinho Verde - small production by Jorge Albuquerque da Quinta, blend of Trajadura, Pederna and Azal they produce a range of three wines - this one is elegant intense , floral - minimum intervention in the winemaking - Dirk Niepoort is around 😀 — 11 years ago
