Dows Vale do Bomfim

The 2010 Dows Vale do Bomfim Douro Red begins with pleasing aromas of blackberry, baking spice and pepper. Tasting the wine reveals lots of rich, juicy dark  fruit plus sweet, grippy tannins and good acidity. Spicy oak notes lurk underneath the fruit and come out towards the end. The finish is dry, long and delicious. 

Vina Gormaz

Vina Gormaz Vendimia Seleccionada incorporates Tempranillo grapes from dry-farmed vineyard plots over 50 years old, fermented in cement tanks. Structure and richness are obtained from the sweet old-vine fruit, resulting in a mineral, earthy complexity without the need for oak aging.
