This producer usually provides us with good value for money wines . Aroma with lots of ripe red fruit. In the mouth the tannins are thin and round, some spice, tasty, and has little body. The end is a disappointment, very weak, watery, forgettable. Price: 12€ P.F.(DEZ...

After the great success of the red, especially of 2011, here is the first white of Palácios dos Távoras Palace. On the label it says it comes from old vines. But either in the aroma or in the mouth the only thing that evidences is the wood. Excellent by the way. In a...

At the western end of Serra da Estrela, in Vinhó-Gouveia, we find a new producer. Which is also a 4 star Rural Hotel, and which produces cheese, curd, jams, olive oil and other regional products. There is also a beautiful restaurant under the care of chef António...

"Pico" also produces liqueurs, from its traditional white varieties. Maybe the biggest name on the island is this "Czar". Rich aroma of caramel and iodine. In the mouth, it is oily q.b. , the caramel continues to predominate on the palate, and although on the label...

Perhaps the most well-known of the Australian companies, Penfolds does not usually leave its credits by the hands of others. And this syrah proves it. Plenty of color. Intense aroma of mint. In the mouth it is spicy, intense and at the same time velvety. Powerful,...

The name of the wine comes from the initials of the producers' children, with vineyards in "Santo Estevão", in the area of Benavente. The wine has 4 varieties: Touriga Nacional, Syrah, Alicante Bouschet and Petit Verdot. Very concentrated color. Aroma of ripe fruit....

Dirk Niepoort doesn't stop, and we always find new projects. It is not common to see this Bordeaux caste planted in Douro lands. It was an experience (only two thousand and such bottles). And an experience gained! The wine is very nice, and maybe it is at its peak. I...
