Quinta dos Avidagos – Reserva 2015 – Douro

The nose is fruity, concentrated and relatively rich. It reveals notes of cassis cream, blackberry, redcurrant, plum and slight notes of dark chocolate associated with a hint of nutmeg, clove as well as a discreet hint of Sichuan pepper and an imperceptible hint of black tea. The palate is fruity, mineral, gourmand, suave, well-balanced and offers a nice definition, an acid frame, juiciness as well as dynamism. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of blackberry, juicy cassis, slight notes of plum associated with hints of wild strawberry, redcurrant as well as slight notes of chocolate, toasted oak, slight hints of vanilla and a hint of black tea. Good length.
