Tasted at the Lodge in Vila Nova de Gaia.
Brick red, wide rim. Unpleasant rubber bands nose, not attractive. Nice texture on the palate, plenty of fruit backed by a big dose of acidity. Lovely slightly caramelised mid-palate but still with lots of the cherry fruit showing. Caramelised aftertaste and long finish. Nice showing. 88/100. Drunk 24 Jun 2017.
