Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Impressively, this is just the second vintage of Quinta Do Noval’s flagship dry red. Charming and fragrant, with floral notes followed by anise, mulberry, plum and maraschino cherry. Dry and spicy on the palate, with mocha and fig characters joining the aroma replays. Smooth tannins, round texture, and a wonderful, rich, long finish. My note: Good roundness and depth with a full-bodied weight. Aromas of dark fruit nicely balanced with some acidity. Food matches: lamb.
