Meruge Red 2021

Douro
93 pts Robert Parker - Beautiful ruby red colour with reddish hues. The aroma is fresh, very fine and complex. Very fruity, dominated by aromas of red fruits, spices and surrounded by tobacco and coffee, fruit of his long aging in oak barrels, giving it finesse and elegance. In the mouth, the attack is fresh, elegant, flavourful, with tannins, but smooth and velvety, pointing out the fruity character. Very rich in taste, has a balanced acidity and an end soon and persistent.
