2011 Casa Ferreirinha Vinha Grande Douro
Graphite, tart fruit, tar, plenty of young tannins, Bing Cherrries, and a long chalky finish. This needs a good decanting or more time in the cellar. Has very good potential and I liked it just a touch more than the Papa Figos. First vintage of this was 1960.
