Quinta da Alorna Vinhos Touriga Nacional / Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva

點擊次數：2917

The 2008 TOURIGA NACIONAL / CABERNET SAUVIGNON RESERVA is laced with sweet oaky notes up front and hints of kirsch on the nose, which frankly detract from the whole, making it seem a bit simple and one dimensional, particularly at the outset. In other respects, it is beautifully constructed, with ripe tannins and an elegant demeanor. It is hard to find the fruit under the oaky overlay, though. Perhaps with time the oak will integrate a bit better, and it did get a bit better with air, but never quite enough. If you don’t mind the oak, this is a lovely wine. Drink now-2018.
