Javali | Maria Luisa Vintage Port | 2018 | Doc Douro

Tasting Notes:
Dark and deep color, with violet and intense areola. In the olfactory appreciation, there is a remarkable aromatic complexity, with fruity notes of black plum and blackberry. In the mouth, it is confirmed that we are facing a “huge” Vintage Javali, with a very solid structure, supported by opulent and ripe tannins. Black fruit and dark chocolate reappear in a long and striking finish
