Quinta do Portal 2008 Reserva Red (Douro)

Country: Portugal / Reserva
Variety: Portuguese Red Douro
Winery: Quinta do Portal /

A powerful wine, certainly, although in the elegant style of Quinta do Portal. Big black berry and plum flavors wrap around tannins that are still young, exuberant, needing time to settle down. The acidity and the solid tannic structure suggest good aging.
