The 2016 Baga Poeirinho, sourced from Bairrada, underwent carbonic maceration and aged for up to 19 months in large barrels. With a garnet hue, the nose reveals ripe, Port-like aromas, featuring marmalade, chutney and olive notes. Dry on the palate, the infused and chalky texture lingers with a nuanced, lasting flavor. This modern wine is in the midst of its evolution. 94 points
