Great portuguese wine from the Alentejano

Post by Frederick Blais »

I went to a portuguese restaurant for launch today and with the laiton( baby milk feed porc ) we had Terra do Zambujeiro. This is produced by quinta do Zambujeiro.

I was really impressed by the quality of this wine. Nice smokey, fresh floral and fied berry fruits bouquet. Intense and open. The palate is silky, tannins are not showing, full of jammy fruits, massive concentration and even with the 15% alcool everything is balance and no heat showing. Only available at "The Vintage" restaurant in Montreal, it was sold 85$ can. A very tasty wine that worths every penny for a wine of this price in a restaurant. 17/20
