Vinho Tinto 2015

Lobenberg: Dunkle Farbe mit violetten Reflexen. Gute Konzentration in der Nase. Am Gaumen samtige Aromen von reifen, roten Früchten, feine Sauerkirsche mir roter Johannisbeere und Schlehe, alles unterlegt mit dezenten Blütenanklängen und einem ganz feinen Vanillehauch vom Ausbau im neuen und gebrauchten Holz. Ein extrem charmanter, schmeichelnder Wein, seidig und köstlich. Im Preis-Genuss-Verhältnis einer der Top-Weine unseres Sortiments. 90-91/100

-- Parker: The 2015 Tinto is a blend of 40% Touriga Nacional, 25% Touriga Franca, 15% Tinta Roriz and 10% each of Castelão and Alicante Bouschet, aged for 18 months in used French oak. It comes in at 13.5% alcohol. This was bottled just a week before tasting. It seemed pretty special for the price. Complex, with high-personality grapes like Castelão and Alicante Bouschet contributing greatly, this has fine concentration for the level. It also has good structure with ripe tannins. This is a little disjointed, though, so let's leave this with a scoring range just now even though it is not technically a barrel sample. No matter where it ends up, it seems like a fine bargain. 89-91/100
