Esporão Reserva, 2008, Portugal

The Esporão announces itself with a strong bouquet of ripe berries. On the tongue, flavors of chocolate, vanilla and oak emerge and meld with liquid complexity. You taste first one, and then the other and then a series of enchanting combinations. The long–lasting finish is supported by strong, foundational tannins. By lifting the sweet flavor of the figs and helping it harmonize with the wild flavor of the duck, the Esporão distinguishes itself as an ideal partner and turns a wonderful duet into a beautiful trio.
