TN: 2003 Rio Bom Touriga Franca Douro Red
This wine was impenetrable on release. Still quite dark ruby. Beatiful nose of intense black cherry and melon, white flowers herbs, and orange peel. So suave in the mouth! Black cherry, chocolate, lemon, plums,. Good grip in the finish, but not really tannic like it was in the past. Extremely long finish. Wow! This wine is finally ready, and it's one of the best Douro wines that I have had this year! 95 points
