Richly fruity, with aromas of raspberries and cherries, joined by leathery complexities and a hint of vanilla. This is a fresh, easy-drinking wine with enough crispness and tannic structure to stand up to roast pork. Picks up intriguing smoky, meaty notes on the finish.

This is the second wine from Carvalhosa. It manages to bring great blackcurrant fruit and firm tannins to the lightweight 2002 vintage. There are flavors of tar, of acidity balanced with fine wood. Drink after 4–5 years.

As in past vintages, Campo Ardosa impresses by its elegance, its tight tannins followed by blackberry fruit flavors and dense texture. This is a poised wine, just beginning to show balance. In 2–3 years, it will be well developed.

Matured in new oak, this shows how the Douro is capable of great elegance. Flavors of dark fruits balance dry tannins and spice. This wine will age, for 10 years or more.
