Country: Portugal / Douro
Variety: Portuguese Red
Winery: Secret Spot Wines / Crooked Vines Colheita
This producer specializes in seeking out parcels of old vines. In this case, the vines, planted at high density, have unusually crooked trunks. The wine itself, richly tannic and dense, has new wood flavors, ripe black-plum fruits and a dark firm character. It is still young and will develop into an impressively rich wine. Drink from 2019.
