PORTUGAL

A note from Decanter, 91 Points: More mellow, with tertiary complexity, at 10 years old the entry-level Baga reveals smudgy tannins, with savory black olive, orange peel and inky floral nuances to the sour black cherry and sweet blackberry fruit. A backbone of chalky acidity makes for a mineral, lingering finish, fragrant with violets. Plenty of interest. Decant shortly before serving.

Food Pairings: Roasted chicken, grilled meats, mushroom risotto.
