Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Blending Alvarinho and Verdelho with Viognier, here is a rich, intense wine. There is no doubting its weight, although it also has fine acidity from its citrus and green plum fruits. Age for another year.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Wood-fermented, lees-stirred, superrich wine. It is complex, the acidity adding to the nectarine and pineapple flavors. With the wood element carefully judged, it does have power but never oversteps the mark. A real success, and worth aging.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Mint and wood aromas go well with this smooth, wood-aged wine. Blending Touriga Nacional and Petit Verdot (resulting in its intense color), the impressive wine is concentrated with very ripe black fruit, which still retains good levels of acidity. Age for 2–3 years.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The Guarda Rios, or kingfisher, lives in the vineyards that produce this wine, which is bright pink, strawberry flavored, attractively dry and crisp.
