There must be a story here, as this 100% Ramisco has a Colheita designation on its label, which I thought could only be used for Port. For a 23 yro wine it still flutters with intensity, but has a faded Ribena palate, beautiful red brick color, & crushed currants/oil paint on the nose. It also avoids the metallic flavor my previous bottle had. For under 40$ it’s a treat to taste such a graceful aged wine.

Not as good as prior bottles, fruit is starting to fade, though plenty of acidity to balance what fruit is left, Ramisco grown in the sand in Portugal lasts a long time!! (11% ABV)!!!
