The 2005 TERMEAO is a blend of Touriga (75%) and Castelao Nacional (20%), with a dollop of Cabernet Sauvignon thrown in. Rather fruity, it is bursting with flavor, yet immediately shows its elegance and focus as well. The mid-palate is well on the elegant side, and the tannins are well integrated. The best feature might be the bouquet, intense and perfumed. The wine is not perhaps as impressive as the heavy bottle, and probably not as deep as its siblings, the “CC” or Calda Bordaleza reviewed this issue, but this sunny, aromatic and tasty wine grew on me as it aired out. Drink now-2013. Campolargo is an attractive estate in Bairrada which often focuses more on international grapes and other Portuguese varieties rather than the traditional Baga, making a Bordeaux blend (Calda Bordaleza) and even a Pinot Noir. They are making pretty good use of those international varieties, producing some interesting wines containing Cabernet Sauvignon in particular. Manuel Campolargo, the owner, presents a large array of wines at different price points, often in big, distinctive bottles with long names. I wasn’t so sure how I felt about this estate from early tastings, but I think they have improved and are going to improve even more. There is always a lot of personality evident here, both in terms of whimsy and wine.Importer: Tri-Vin Imports, Mt. Vernon, NY; tel. (914) 664-3155
