Powerful wine that manages to wear its alcohol and strength lightly. The tannins are firm, keeping on the sweet side, integrated well with the ripe, jammy, perfumed blackberry fruits. With its floral aromas, this is an intensely varietal wine. 1 Note

Produced from Touriga Nacional, the main red variety in Dão, this wine is lean, mineral, with austere tannins that need time to soften. It has a core of dry black fruit skins that sit with the black berry flavors and a chalky texture. Definitely a food wine. 1 Note

A 100% Touriga Nacional from the Cortes de Cima vineyard, this wine exhibits a very spicy character, packed with berry fruits and sweetness. This is a wine that is ready to drink now, with soft tannins. 1 Note

This is a huge, powerful wine, from the almost black color to the aromas of tarry fruit, and the flavors of wood and sweet blackberries. It will certainly age well—10 years or more. —R.V. 1 Note

Rich fruit, tempered with the perfumed structure of Touriga Nacional, give this wine both complexity and fruitiness. It has weight and concentration, followed by juicy acidity. 1 Note

Very structured, with strong new wood flavors and black currant fruit. The wine feels relatively light, almost fresh, while also having considerable tannins and dryness. 1 Note

Rich andfruity, with some true Touriga Nacional dry tannins but more juicy berry fruits lined with spice from wood. There is a bitter, hot edge that comes from the alcohol, which detracts from the fruit flavors. 1 Note

A bulky, fruity wine that makes up in size and flavor what it lacks in finesse. Bold blackberry and grape flavors finish with ash and charcoal notes. Grilled burgers would be the perfect food pairing. 1 Note

For a wine at this price, this is an impressive performance. It is rich, finely structured, the juicy blackberry flavors filling the mouth. It may lack complexity, but the spice, tobacco and berry flavors are enjoyably drinkable. 1 Note
