Quando os Tigres Fumavam
An exceptional wine from a small vineyard.
The vineyard is bordered by a forest, olive trees and a stream.
Vines have grown in this place for a very long time.
If the vines could talk, they would have many tales to tell.
They might begin their story by saying:
‘Quando os tigres fumavam…’
An excellent old vine fruit giving the wine ripeness and authority. Bright and clean, with lifted acidity and silky yet assertive tannins. Should improve over the next 2+ years and age gracefully for a decade.

Plenty of fruit & floral aromas on the nose. Berries, cherries, also ethereal notes of pine needles. Balanced, absolutely ready to drink, but I (& you) don't have to be a prophet if you're familiar with the Dão reds to predict a very, very great career for this Tinto after 4-5 more years in bottle.
