Winery - Quinta de Parrotes

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Tastes more than a little like a decent cru bourgeois, with scents of leather and cedar and flavors of tea, tobacco and cassis. Medium-weight and surprisingly elegant. A blend of Castelão and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Despite containing only a small percentage of Cabvernet Sauvignon, the herbal—almost vegetal—scent of unripe Cabernet dominates this wine. It’s plump and round in the mouth, yet has a distinctly unripe character to it. If you can, track down the 2001 instead—it’s much better. Imported by Admiral Wine Imports.
