2013 Casa Ferreirinha Papa Figos Douro

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Here ADV posted tasting notes on a number of Ferreira ports and table wines.

This is one I've rarely had in the past, as it's not one typically finds in the USA. The grapes come mostly from Quinta da Leda. Lots of black fruit, tar, moderate tannins, medium-full body, and along luscious finish. My notes say "Wow, what a great QPR."
