Answer 2

Can't help you, but try this.

95/100 Quinta do Vale Meão Douro Red 2003
Douro Superior, Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, Portugal



Wow! What a fabulous bottle of wine. It's not very often you come across a wine like this and the fact that it comes from the Douro justifies all the work and energy of a handful of Douro producers who have put the upper Douro's dry red wine on the map. Look for savoury mouth-watering black fruit with hints of chocolate and impeccable balance. Now tasted twice in the last six months this is the real deal. Floral, peppery, black raspberry jam, black tea, cassis, dry stones, garrigue, licorice, aromas with a creamy vanilla note. Rich, ripe, round and suave with supple tannins and some warmth. Intense black cherry jam, kirsch, licorice, vanilla, peppery, cardamom and orange peel flavours with a floral, black plum, chocolate finish. Long, dry and intense with great balance. Will improve for 3-7 years. A joy to drink or keep.
