From a field blend of old vines, that includes Tinta Barroca, Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz. Dense brambly black fruit aromas; baked plum. One for fans of big structured reds: spicy black and red fruit packed into a compact oak framework from 12 months in French oak. There's a touch of greenness on the long finish at the moment, though this will certainly continue to evolve in bottle.
