"Fermented in open lagars, this wood-aged wine has a powerful structure and ripe texture. Dense black fruits are layered with smokiness and finished with bright acidity. It has good aging potential and should be ready from 2023. Roger Voss"

"Well-known winemaker Luis Duarte runs this winery on a colonial estate turned hotel two hours southeast of Lisbon. Serious wood aging, leaving concentrated notes of spice and toast, haven't taken away from the considerable potential of this powerful wine. Dark tannins and brooding flavors of black plum and damson skin suggest this wine will develop well, with a rich future. Drink from 2018."
