2011 Quinta Da Silveira, Tinta, Reserva

2011 Quinta Da Silveira, Tinta, Reserva

Here’s a wine with power, style and grace. Beautiful lashings of stewed fruit over a toasty coffee and dark chocolate. Elegant and soft tannins that caress your gums and provide a provocative texture to the old world class that this wine provides.

Mostly, this wine is purely and simply wicked delicious.

The Douro valley is where the grapes for Port are grown and three of them, #touriganacional #tourigafranca #tintaroriz, are featured in this beautiful drop.

French oak gives a toasty baked character to the wine and is super well integrated because of the solid amount of bottle age that this has seen.

I would expect to pay twice or three times as much for this kind of quality. Get you some!

#PlaylistPairing — The California Honeydrops. Way old school style that is purely about making a joyous noise. Pandering to no one, they are a force to be reckoned with and just a whole lot of fun to listen to. Complex, understated and great with a glass of this wine.

Drink Well and Better,
