Esporão, Quatro Castas, Alentejano, Portugal, 2014

Judicious use of Cabernet brings blackcurrant and line to this blend, lovely length, intensity of fruit, balance. Some dusty tannins, mineral notes and red fruits, combined with elegant oak and a dry finish. A versatile and sophisticated wine; good with food or alone. Heady black fruits on the nose, spicy, velvety and chocolatey on the palate, with good length and freshness for all its concentration.
