2016 Quinta de Roriz

[Alex Bridgeman]

Another wine from the 2016 vintage that is dark and opaque. More fragrant and elevated on the nose than most others at this tasting, sweet and fresh. Smooth on the palate with the fruit fresh and well rounded. Plenty of tannins showing against the typical Roriz minerality. Fresh and pleasant across the whole of the palate with a refined aftertaste and a good, slightly chewy finish. A nice, elegant port. 87-89.

Tasted 12 September 2018.

Rr16 Deep ruby red. Red fruit on the nose and palate. Good flavours, balance and acidity. Nice drinking, but no wow factor.
