QUINTA DO VALE MEÃO

Douro 2018

- 96 points -

A touch lighter in hue and palate-weight than previous vintages, but no less confident, the 2018 is a vibrant, immensely appealing vintage. It reveals this estate’s exotic orange peel/blossom aromas, with juicily persistent black cherry, blackberry and pureed raspberry fruit, crushed coriander seed and smoky espresso and nutmeg nuances. Refined tannins and fresh acidity enhance clarity and flow. Lithe.
