QUINTA DA NESPEREIRA VINEATICU 2008
Quinta Da Nespereira, Dao Vineaticu - 2008
from Serra Da Estrela, Gouveia, Portugal
It is a blend of Touriga Nacional, Jaen and Tinta Roriz.
Rated 86 by Wine Spectator
Nose: peppery, chock full of a minerality with notes of vanilla and a hint of dried black fruit.
Mouth: a bit thin at first sip but definite taste of vanilla. Its fair share of tannins but the minerals and spice along with the hint of black fruit balance it nicely - the vanilla smooths out the finish.
Decent wine especially since it is $18.95 at the LCBO.

I'd buy it again, a good light easy drinking red.
