RESERVA RED 2018 DOC Douro, Portugal
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer CASA DE CAMBRES
Wow, this is an exceptionally youthful looking 2018 with its extremely deep intense purple colour. Very bright, fresh, slightly spicy, crancherry nose with some slightly peppery, faintly cedary, notes. Dry, medium bodied, nicely structured very bright, ripe, plum-cranherry flavours with a lingering, crisp, minerally finish. It has 13.5% alcohol and under 5 g/L residual sugar. You can lay it away for a summer bbq. CSPC 470377
