Pintas,DouroRed,Wine&Soul2022EnPrimeur–Caseof6

The Pintas vineyard is now 92 years old, containing more than 40 varieties. The grapes were all foot trodden in stone lagare and aged in French oak for 20 months. Near opaque, the nose shows a little oak sweetness and cream, and gorgeous aromas of soft blue and black fruits, super purity and precision ? ripe yet perfectly fresh and cool with just a touch of liquorice. Deeply concentrated and intense on the palate, more savoury, poised and sophisticated, with very fine tannins, great mineral expression and fresh without being racy. Amazing juice. 5-25 years.
