    With great fragrance and just a touch of spiciness, this is full-bodied ripe wine. Along with the more exotic flavors, it has intense apple and nectarine fruit, and a bright, tight texture. Drink now, or age for a year.

    Tight and mineral, this is firmly structured, a solid wine that speaks of the dark granite soil of the region. With vineyards against Portugal's highest mountain range, this is a dark, always dry and tannic wine.
