Nicki Gig

very aromatic, some floral aromas, lilac, lychee, peach and a twinge of melon on the nose, like sweet perfume and seems similar to a Viognier. the plate is floral, herbal, some grassy notes with little hints of orange and peach nectar. lovely finish....

Gregory Dal Piaz

A blend of Touriga Nacional (59%) and Syrah (41%) Oaky on the nose and rather toasty with very earthy, clay like soil tones, hints of tobacco and a sweet almond top note. Rich and round on entry and a bit dense on the palate, this shows some sweetne...

Twin Vines Vinho Verde DOC Portugal (2008)

Varietal: Touriga Nacional , Syrah
Type: Table Wines

More of that unique metallic dusty dark fruit nose I'm learning is the calling card of Touriga Nacional. Mixed perfectly with the syrah, resulting in a spice and blood bath, although pleasant. There's some potpourri and zin-like chalky sweetness on the...

Varietal: Periquita

zufrieden

This wine contains less than 40% Castelão (Periquita) so is hardly Periquita per se. However, the inclusion of Touriga Nacional is definitely a plus; the nose has a hint of sour cherry - even cranberry - with wet earth. The entry is tart, with more c...

Gregory Dal Piaz

A blend of Castelão (38%), Touriga Nacional (34%), Touriga Francesa (28%) Smells a bit like Syrah, peppery, inky a bit olivy, and filled with briary blue and black fruit, spice notes and a late hint of vanilla. Pretty rich on entry with an attractive...

José Maria da Fonseca Douro Domini (2005)

Winery: José Maria da Fonseca
Region: Portugal » Douro

solomania9

Like nothing I've ever smelled before. Dark, fungal, and metallic but with a Red Vines sweetness to it. Medium bodied with high acidity, christmas spice, and blood. Fine powdery tannins. A real interesting wine.

    Snoothrank:

    Biased, I was previously enamored with all Portuguese reds. Then, I had this one and the love fest is over. The acid never diminished. It was a rather lightly colored red in the glass with a bit of a floral attack on the nose, but disappointing. Read More
