Big red here- black fruit,currant, spice , fig , the oak is a little big for me - still nice -could’ve mistaken this for a Cab wish the oak was a little less prominent 2008 vintage

Liked this one so much I grabbed a few bottles to fill out a half case I was ordering.

Very good Dão. Strong earthy flavors with cedar, tobacco, smoke, and hints of dark fruit. Dry, medium bodied, slightly acidic with round tannings; a very rustic mouthfeel.

An essentially perfect red, at least given my preferences.

We drank with a very rich duck confit, and it was the perfect match. A similarly rich wine, dark berries, with some cab tendencies as others have said. It has leather, fruit, a big flavor, and should be drank with an equally rich dish.
