2019 Pormenor Tinto, Douro, Portugal
$29.99
Douro classically makes powerful reds and, when done well, they are an absolute joy to drink. Pedro Coelho, the man behind Pormernor, makes a host of experimental “against-type” red wines but this is his nostalgic ode to the classic wines of the region. Made with all indigenous varietals inside his garage-sized winery, the fruit is fermented naturally in tank before seeing almost two years in old barrel. What you get is a mature wine that shows the old school nobility of the Douro. - Leon Circle Note
