Deep dark ruby red color. Intense ripe aromas of black fruit, dark plum and forest fruits with some fresh notes of Esteva (a local resinous shrub) combined with new oak and spices, making this wine complex and mysterious. On the palate, it shows good quality tannins, good concentration and elegance. Long lasting aftertaste. This wine, which is only produced in the best years, is an authentic blend of the best that the Douro has to offer.
