Porta 6 Lisboa Reserva 2020

From Vigidal: 16,5 pts Vinho Grandes Escolhas – Ruby dark colour. Intense aromas to wild and black fruits, spices, light touch of chocolate. In the mouth, fruit, structure, soft and fresh with persistent and pleasant finish.

I was expecting something punchier, unremarkable, will make a note to try the standard Porta 6.

50% Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo), 40% Castelão and 10% Touriga Nacional

The label shows a painting of the E28 Tram in Lisbon by Hauke Vagt.

Adega de Penalva Indigenous wine is a blend of 40% Touriga Nacional, 30% Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo) and 30% Jaen (Mencía).
