“The 2015 Tinto Quinta de Foz de Arouce is an 80/20 blend of Baga and Touriga Nacional, aged for six months in used French barriques. It comes in at 14% alcohol. Since I saw this last, just before bottling, it has fleshed out. It is somewhat supple now but full in the mouth and still tight on the finish. It is beautifully textured too, the silk caressing the palate. This has come around well, exceeding expectations. Add the vivid (but controlled) flavor, and it is a very nice deal that can age for at least another decade or so.”

“The 2015 Tinto Quinta de Foz de Arouce is the latest release, a blend of 80% Baga and 20% Touriga Nacional, aged for six months in used French barriques. It comes in at 14% alcohol. This was a tank sample (out of barrel, final blend, awaiting bottling soon). A step up on the 2013, this has a bit more depth and even better fruit. It is also a bit more intense, but credit that to its youth. Overall, this is very pretty. It should be approachable on release and capable of holding for the better part of a decade.”
