  • Description

    The nose offers power, gourmandise as well as a fine and very slightly tight grain. It reveals notes of blackberry, toasted notes and small notes of vanilla, cassis associated with small touches of ripe strawberry / cherry as well as very discreet hints of sweet spices and a very discreet hint of Sichuan pepper. The mouth is juicy, fruity, well-balanced, a bit aerial, quite frank and offers a beautiful acidulous frame, a slight tension, precision as well as gourmandise. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy blackberry, juicy ripe raspberry and small notes of juicy cassis combined with touches of juicy blueberry, flowers, liquorice, slight hints of vanilla as well as very discreet hint of cardamom and black olive in the background. Tannins are well-built and very discreetly mellow. Good length. The finish is gourmand.

    The 2017 Tinto Vinhas Velhas is a field blend from 80-year-old vines (some 20 grapes, with eight identified, including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and others), aged for 12 months in mostly used French oak. It comes in at 15.2% alcohol.
