Churchill’s Estates – Grafite Grande Reserva 2016 – DOC Douro

Churchill’s Estates – Grafite Grande Reserva 2016 – DOC Douro

The nose is fresh with a rustic note. There is a slight minerality with a hint of cold tobacco. The second nose opens with black pepper and still a vegetal aspect. We perceive fresh and crisp black fruits. The palate is round on the attack, fresh with notes of juicy black fruits. The tannins are present, a little dry on the finish, but integrated. The palate is smooth, on black cherry, blackberry and blackcurrant. The finish is lovely with a hint of coffee and bitter chocolate on a fresh cherry.
