Details
Quinta do Vesuvio 2011
In original wooden case
Tasting note: Deep intense purple color. Intense flavored, chocolate and fine grained tannins in a well-balanced taste. Packed-in power. Great length, one of the best Vesuvio's I have tasted. Outclassing the very good 1994. Fragrant nose of violets, lavender, chocolate and fresh raisins. Very attractive. The taste is especially impressive, strong and well balanced, after some days revealing the fine acidity. A great wine to enjoy now for its gorgeous fruit and strength, then after a decade or more for its balance and length. Already left a big impression during Vinexpo 2013. Last tasted December 2013. E.V.
