2009 Quevedo Sample Touriga Nacional
Posted: 19:11 Mon 28 Aug 2023
In 2009 Quevedo bottled some of their Vintage Port varietals in quarter bottles. The following notes are for the wines on a Pop and Pour basis.
Touriga Nacional: a very peculiar nose, strained fruit compote of red and black fruit. Fruit on the palate, but a bit thin, distorted by the acidity. A little baked and with faint bitter tannins. Lovely fresh red fruit on the aftertaste, but which fades quickly. Very light bodied and delicate, but extremely pleasant. 87/100 Tasted 03-Mar-23. Pop 'n' pour.
