Note di degustazione
Magnum. Deep crimson with an aged rim. Nose SO different from the modern era Douros that I have just been tasting! Very complex nose of autumn leaves, lots of acidity, great depth, still a little chewy but with great acidity and life but it did collapse a bit in the glass. Transparent. Real vivacity, great balance. Savoury yet very ripe. Great classical balance. Hint of orange peel. (JR)

Altre recensioni e punteggi
Saturated ruby-red. Pungent aromas of red raspberry liqueur, earth, mint and shoe polish. Extremely backward and penetrating in the mouth; old-style, slightly rustic flavors of roasted plum and cassis supported by a powerful spine of acids and chewy tannins. If you can't wait seven or eight years on this wine, make sure to serve it alongside fatty meats. One of Portugal's most renowned, and expensive, red table wines, but a wine whose price has escalated sharply in recent years: my remaining bottles of the '78 still bear their original 12 price tags.
