What reviewers say
“LBV con gran manifestación de Touriga Franca entre todo el mezclum de Touriga Nacional, Tinto Cão, Tinta Francisca, Amarela, Roriz, Sousão, etc. bajo D.O. Porto Douro. A la vista… picota con ribete violáceo. Capa media-alta. Buena lágrima. En nariz… Intensidad media. Joven.”

Summary
A complex aroma where red fruit notes are predominant, reminiscent of cherries and spices, with a peppery touch. A hint of dark chocolate. On the palate, it is greatly concentrated and full-bodied with firm tannins which at the same time are elegant and smooth. The great acidity provides freshness and balance to the wine. The finish is long and pleasant.
