"Dullish medium red with a sign of browning. Mature aromas of redcurrant, marzipan, smoke, underbrush and gunflint, plus a whiff of exotic fruits. Moderately dense and rich in extract but can't match the wines of the '90s for depth of flavor, definition or lift."

One of the world's oldest demarcated wine regions, famed for fortified Port and, increasingly, powerful dry reds. Its terraced schist vineyards and native grapes yield wines of concentration and character.
Covers powerful dry reds and fortified Port from native varieties grown on the valley's terraced schist slopes.
