Vinha Do Bispado Grande Reserva Tinto

Description

“This Vinha do Bispado Grande Reserva clearly went a *little* overboard with its pursuit of perfection – you can sense a slight ‘de-fatting’ and a thermal shock. However, the result is a remarkably powerful wine, echoing the intensity of the Douro Superior. Wild berry and black cherry notes intertwine with a subtle ‘licorice’ character and hints of wood, showcasing a sophistication that’s genuinely impressive. It demands a certain respect with its firm tannins and smooth texture, but rewards you with an incredibly long, persistent finish – perfect alongside a hearty beef dish or, perhaps, a good aged cheese.”
