  • Lifted aromas of fresh Douro red forests fruits, very well combined with elegant bush and spice characters. Excellent approach, with upfront red fruits leading to a solid structure with fresh and elegant tannins. Great acidity, developing to a pleasant, well balanced and persistent finished.

Press ReviewPress

This fine old producer does a brilliant job of making Douro wines and ports at accessible prices, both in supermarket own-label wines and in this boldly fruit-driven red. The tannins are considerably softer than your average Douro red, making it a good alternative for Aussie shiraz.

David Williams Observer - February 2012

Imagine the structure of a claret, dripping with juice and loaded with thicker layers of spice, liquorice, alcohol and berries and you can almost taste this red, made in the Douro Valley from a blend of port grapes.

Victoria Moore Daily Telegraph - October 2011

SILVER MEDAL - Fragrant, ripe red and black fruit nose with layered juicy fruit and violet flavours.
