From the Dao.
2 grape varieties, of which Touriga Nacional is one. Red with hints of purple. Lovely fruity nose. Nice fruit on the palate and a strong acidity; the two combine to give a wine which is elegant and floral. A wonderful burst of floral perfumes on the aftertaste and great persistence on the finish. 88/100. Drunk 04-Sep-14. Decanted 1 hour.

Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
