Tasting - Vega Douro

Name: Vega Douro
Variety: 40% Tinta Roriz, 40% Touriga Franca and 20% Touriga Nacional
Region: Douro
Country: Portugal
Year: 2009
Price: $9.99

Shop Review: 90 DFJ Vinhos 2009 Vega (Douro). 
Smooth and wood aged, this has a polished texture. Fruit flavors of blueberry and red cherry combine with the rounded tannins and a spice note to give a rich feel. Full yet elegant, age this for the next two years. Dionysos Imports Inc. -R.V.

My Review: Very spicy. The fruit flavors were very mellow hard to distinguished but the body and tannin component were spot on.
