TN: 2005 Rio Bom Colheita Douro Red -- Quinta do Mourao
60% Touriga Franca and 40% Touriga Nacional. Very dark ruby. No substantial bricking. Blackberry, mushroom, lemon peel, forest floor, grilled meat. Getting quite complex now. A big wine. Surprisingly young. A stong wine. I'm sipping it, not drinking it. Really sold. Very good acidity. Paired perfectly with lasagna. It really needs food. I don't think that this will fall apart any time soon. A very good, very long lived wine. 90 points.
