Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A linear, dry style of Port, structured and assured. It has richness, of course, with flavors of dried fruits, dark black cherries and acidity. Even though it is an LBV, it could certainly age for a few years.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An impressively structured wine, the dense and dusty tannins in fine balance with the big berry fruits. Freshness is preserved by the acidity, the wine’s firm character opening up to a delicious, more juicy finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here are all the perfumes and tannins of Touriga Nacional. The wine does, though, seem one-dimensional, the fruit offering acidity, berry flavors and fresh acidity.

A rounded, smooth-textured white, given freshness by the acidity that offers a lemon zest edge. Green herbs and apple juice shine on the balanced, crisp finish.

With toast, sweet ripe yellow fruits and some lovely acidity, this is a complex full-bodied wine, its dense texture promising another 1–2 years aging.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Quinta Nova is downriver of Pinhão, still in the heart of Douro vineyards. The wine is sold, firm, with a fine balance of dark tannins and concentrated fruit. It should be aged for 3–4 years.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A firm, initially austere wine that only shows its richness slowly. Obviously it needs aging, because the dark tannins show the huge potential concentration of fruit under the tigth structure. It’s going to be impressive. Give it 5–6 years.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Lean, bitter chocolate-flavored wine. The structure dominates, pierced with acidity and tight tannins. Firm, structured and dry, it has weight enough to suggest it will age.
