2010 Post Scriptum

Still surprisingly purple in colour; also surprisingly closed on the nose with very little bouquet. Strongly tannic palate with restrained fruit that comes with lovely perfumed tones. The tannins dry the mouth on the aftertaste but eventually relent to release a long finish of sharp blackcurrants. This would benefit from further cellaring for at least 5 years. 90/100.

Can you add any other details of this wine, perhaps? Producer, label..?

This is the second label of Chryseia. Produced by the Symington Family Estates. Made from grapes from the Douro valley (Thus a Douro DOC wine). The grapes come from Quinta de Roriz and Quinta da Perdiz.
