Quinta dos Carvalhais Encruzado 2002

Dão, Northern Portugal, PortugalCitrus butter, vanilla, nutty, mineral aromas mix with some obvious aged in French oak undertones. The entry is dry with similar nutty, vanilla, buttery notes mixed with chalky citrus rind flavours. It seems a bit low in flavour concentration for the price but the finish is crisp and moderately long.Tasted: 14 September 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
