A great wine from the Douro! This Quinta Nova terroir Blend reminds us of the vineyard, the plot, the terraces. The intense ruby color of an excellent vintage, the complexity and density of the aromas of wild berries, cassis and blueberries. White spices. Nice concentration. A good balance between its firm structure and its juicy texture that flows tightly and smoothly into a long and complex aftertaste
