1996 Herdade do Esporao Trincadeira

1st Jan 1999 GBP7 Portugal Table Red

Opaque purple, evenly fading to a pinkish red.
Stewed nose of violets, mulberries and capsicums - attractive.
Full bodied with stewed black fruit flavours, good balance and a chalky, dry finish.
Very good now, but needs to be drunk up.
