Palate--Slightly tart front palate, with puckery tannins and robust acidity. Tart raspberry and cherry.
Whoa! This is a lip smacking, over-the-top Douro (Portugal) creation that may be beyond mellowing out.
At 4 years of age it is not very approachable but then again I just opened it. I will see how this pairs with my Carbonara as sometimes these wines that are questionable by themselves are great with food. We shall see!
***With our dinner of carbonara, it really was a very nice pairing. For $6 raise a glass!
