Manoella Vinho Tinto 2021 750ml

The primary, fresh and fruit-driven 2021 Manoella Tinto was produced with grapes from vines planted in 1970s and 1984 with four varieties but still mixed in the vineyard in Quinta de Manoella on rich soils. This is a cooler place because of the forest around it. Those grapes delivered a juicy and fruit-driven red with a moderate 13.5% alcohol. It has a primary and fruit-driven nose despite having been aged in (neutral) oak barrels for 16 months. It had a long maceration that extracted deep aromas and flavors of fruits of the forest and pungent flavors, but the tannins are very polished. A Duoro with a fresher profile.
