Vallado, Douro DOC (Portugal) 2018

Dec 29, 2021

By Rich Cook

 This partly foot trodden wine is all about darkness, as it should be considering its composition.  Aromas and flavors of tar, blackberry and black plum flood the senses, with complementary pepper and moderate oak toast providing support.  A supple grip keeps things integrated and long, and you will find yourself sipping repeatedly.  Contains Tinta Roriz, Tinta Amarela, Touriga Franca and Tinta Barroca.
