Opta Dão Touriga Nacional Blend
2020 - vintage - Touriga Nacional-35%, Alfrocheiro-35% -Tinta Roriz-30% ( also known as Tempernillo) I have mixed feelings about this wine - very dark color - not a lot of oak aging here with these tannic varieties but the aromas are nice leafy big blackberry fruit , coca powder medium plus tannins , medium acidity ,13 %ABV (seems like I would enjoy this more with extended barrel aging) still for the price point very enjoyable.

Nov 6th, 2023Lovely ‘critter label’. Nice color. Ruby with a hint of purple. Fairly savory nose. Smells like raw beef, cut fruit tree branches, fennel & ground fresh pepper. Flavors are tart with hints of unsweetened berries. Elderberry and cranberry. Plenty of lip smacking tannins. This is a well made classic Dão.

Oct 13th, 2024Beautiful wine, very very good for the price! Would buy again. Deep rich color. Smells very grape jelly-ish, but doesn't taste like Welch's! Really nice wine, would definitely recommend it!
