Deep rubi robe, nose of liquorice, blackcurrant and plums. Dark fruits, medium bodied and very pleasant in the mouth, good balance and works well with food. — a month ago
Red Douro with Douro red grapes. Excellent fruit and worked really well with food. At less than 20 bucks this is a steal ! — a month ago
Medium rubi robe, nose of asian spices, crushed flowers and a hint of violets. Very elegant and complex wrapped up on a medium bodied mouth with excellent length. This punches well above its weight. — 24 days ago
Deep inky rubi robe, nose of dark fruits, flowers, top soil and spices. Violets and dark cherries intertwined with silky tannins and cedar wood. Very long finish, in a rich but balanced Tempranillo. — a month ago
Dark rubi robe, bordering blackish rubi. Nose of blackcurrant, anise, asphalt and vanillin oak. Very dense and rich on the mouth, borderline over the top but not really. A very good to excellent Portuguese red, just lacking some freshness and complexity for a higher score. — a month ago
Very dark rubi robe, very reticent nose with hints of blackcurrant. Rich and bold on the mouth, liquorice, asian spices and blackcurrant. Very long with a polished finish, opened up after one hour. Modern styled but excellent ! — a month ago
A bit heavy and unbalanced. Somewhat disappointing. — a month ago
No specific notes but a truly good Douro red in a nice vintage. Lots going on under the hood. — a month ago
Medium dark rubi robe, no fading, actually looks like at least 10 years younger. Nose of flowers and anise, blackcurrant in the end. Oh so rich and so good in the mouth. Getting better after 20 minutes of uncorking. Tonight it’s a hair better than the RSV we tasted just before. Great stuff. — a month ago

Medium dark rubi robe. The nose is shy but shows its asian apices, crushed flowers, and dark cherries. The wine is a dense but elegant infusion of crushed flowers, top soil, cedar wood, asian spices, medium bodied, long and complex. An excellent premier cru almost at grand cru level. Very impressive. — 14 days ago
