Procura na Anfora 2022 

Procura na Anfora 2022 

From the 85-year-old Saio Frio vineyard, a mixed field blend of more than 20 varieties. This hybrid style is fermented in talha but removed quickly to avoid dominating skin tannins from extended contact. This St Martins Day 2022 sample, taken directly from talha, is as good as previous vintages and should evolve along the same lines. Newborn as it is, it sings loudly with ultra-fresh green melon, pear, flower stem and blossom aromas, and hums along in the mouth with similar fruit characters. Deeply concentrated, densely texture and ever so viscous, it delivers remarkable flavor length that last well over a minute after swallowing. I loved its meltaway finish, exquisite balance and finesse. A remarkable wine from a great old vineyard. 97
