Quinta de Baixo Gonçalves Faria Red 2016

Bairrada
(1) review 3.0/5
95 pts Robert Parker - With a beautiful violet colour of light concentration, the aroma is very fine, deep and complex. Wild berries notes in harmony with an intense mineral profile, where the chalk notes stand out in the glass. Although very young, its harmony is impressive, with silky tannins involved in fresh fruit notes. Huge structure and power, the whole set is delicate, elegant and very fine, thanks to the freshness of fruit and excellent acidity. Refreshing finish, almost salty and very focused on the limestone terroir. A perfect wine to drink while young and feel all its harmony, but that will age with greatness.

buono

rubino tendente al mattone, profumo intenso, melograno, amarena,liquirizia, buona acidità e tannino ancora eccessivo. Da aprire qualche ora prima. Migliorerà sicuramente nei prossimi anni.
