“
The 2013 Tinto (the Estate, flagship red here) is a blend of
58% Touriga Nacional, 35% Touriga Franca, 5% Tinta Barroca
and 2% Tinta Roriz, aged for 18 months in 225-liter Allier
barriques (80% new and 20% second use). It comes in at 14%
alcohol. Adding a layer of concentration and more power to
the Meandro, its sibling reviewed this issue, this has a
wonderfully elegant feel, while adding some surprising pop
and power to the gripping and lingering finish. Let's not forget
the part where it provides wonderful intensity of flavor on the
finish. It's just delicious this year, without ever being candied,
sweet or obvious. Subtle at times, yet intense and persistent,
this perfectly balanced beauty should hold well. It has some
things to prove in the cellar, but it should develop well. As time
goes on, I'm expanding drinking windows, but let's remain a
little on the conservative side. Sourced from vines averaging
45 years in age, there were 2,050 cases produced.
