Esporão Roupeiro 2018 13.5% Vinho de Talha DOC
Grown on ungrafted vines in sandy soil in hot Granja-Amareleja region and naturally fermented. Deep golden color coming on with age. Initially it has a slightly sweet baseline aromas of green vegetables with dried green herb high notes. With airing, this gains a high-toned spiciness as well. Full bodied, densely textured and concentrated, all carried over through a long, fine, slickly viscous, gently tapered, melt-away finish. A complex, interesting wine made for food, but worth contemplating in a large well-focused glass. With decanting, it shifts yet again toward apple skin/cooked apple characters. 24 hours later it becomes a well integrated, compact wine with fine skin tannins and well-balanced acidity. 96
