Quinta do Vesuvio Red 2020
Compact bouquet of blueberries, blackberries, tobacco, cedar and earthy slate nuances. In the mouth again very compact, wonderfully noble, versatile, grippy, fine round tannins and an infinitely long persistent finish. Great class!

From the historic Vesúvio vineyard, created in the 19th century by Dona Antonia Ferreira, this wine is superbly structured with firm tannins and dense black fruits. It needs plenty more time. Drink from 2026.
