Quinta Dona Matilde – Colheita 2008 – Porto

The nose is fruity, slightly powerful and offers a slight gourmandise. It reveals notes of blackberry jam and slight notes of plum, fig, cassis associated with a discreet hint of candied orange as well as hints of cedar wood, spices and dry fruits. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, fat, well-built, suave and offers a beautiful mineral frame, a slight acidity as well as a slight straightness. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of crushed blackberry, crushed cassis, plum and hints of cherry jam associated with slight touches of fig, dry fruits as well as a discreet hint of coconut, hazelnut and a woody hint. Good length and persistence. The persistence is gourmand, suave and offers slight touches of crushed fresh hazelnut and coconut. To drink!
