(Alicante Bouschet, Touriga Nacional, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah)
Young and fresh aroma with grape stem and dark berry fruit, and a little mint. Tastes like it smells, young and not particularly tannic nor heavy. Avid is good, and then there are some reasonable tannins. It is now actually better than I expected. Probably won’t age well for a long time, but at reasonable QPR wine at €8. 88-89 points.
