Samuel Magalhaes e Silva 2011 Douro 4U (Douro DOC) Portugal
Availability: Private wine shops like Everything Wine
Cost: $14-16
Alcohol: 13.5%
Production: 12000 cases
Date Tasted: February 24th, 2014
Tasting Notes: Clean, generous nose combining black fruit, licorice, cured meats, incense and a multitude of spices. The palate shows good continuity from the nose with a modern, early-drinking sensibility; fresh acidity, mild tannins and food-friendly complexity. Finishes quite short, undercutting its value as an on-its-own-sipper - open with dinner and enjoy this wine in its youth. Drink now-2016.
