AliveTaste

"New in Douro, from Quinta do Pôpa with a clean scent guided by the notes of ripe fruit and spices, persistent palate with firm tannins surrounded by the fruit, good acidity, structure, balance and custom end. It is a wine of comfort, hot, which pairs with tidbit and a conversation near to the fireplace; also with meat dishes, or even with a good roasted fish at the table. "

Manuel Gonçalves da Silva, Visão 7

"Discreet sweetness, toasted oak barrel, spices to give complexity to the red fruit and some earth and dry grass notes. Firm in the mouth with medium body, tamed tannins, fresh acidity and integrated, with an end dryly, bitter light."

Revista de Vinhos, Luis Antunes
