Château De Landiras 2018, A.C. Graves

Oak, gooseberry, forest floor and black fruit. As it warms up and decant in the glass you start getting some cassis at the end. The palate was the same with low acidity and soft tannins. Very easy drinking wine.

Medium flavours of blueberry, vanilla, bell pepper, white pepper, brown sugar, and dried herbs with the bell pepper coming back at the end. An easy-drinking juicy wine from Sonoma, I was surprised by the bell pepper.

São Miguel Escolha Dos Enologos 2019, Vinho Regional Alentejano

Aromas of red fruit, dried herbs, gunpowder, blueberry, cassis, mint, and dried Indian spices. After some time, it had a pleasant perfume.

On the palate, the wine had flavours of violet, cherry, black fruit, red licorice, pepper, menthol, and salt. The nose was complex, but the palate was not quite as intricate; nonetheless, still a nice wine. Soft tannins with medium minus acidity. - April 2024
