Casa Ferreirinha – Esteva 2015 – Douro

The nose is fruity and a bit closed, needs to be aerated. It reveals notes of cassis, boysenberry and slight notes of blackberry cream associated with a hint of fleshy strawberry, liquorice as well as a very discreet hint of eucalyptus, cacao and a very discreet hint of caramelized oak. The palate is fruity, mineral, well-balanced and offers a slight freshness, juiciness as well as an acid frame. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of blackberry, plum and slight notes and cassis associated with hints of liquorice, chocolate as well as a hint of strawberry. Tannins are well-built. Good length.
