It's primary and young, with purity of fruit, a round mouthfeel and fine-grained tannins. Only 10% of the wine matured in used barrels. This is a red Douro for food, with only 10% of the volume matured in used 225-liter French oak barrels. It has moderate ripeness and 13.5% alcohol. They produce an impressive 610,000 bottles of this! It was bottled between June and December 2023.
