title: Quinta do Vallado 2006 Reserva Red (Douro)
description: From old vines and with 17 months' wood aging, this is a smoothly ripe wine, the structure softened out, giving dusty tannins, great ripe black plum fruits and balancing acidity. It could be drunk now, but for the super-ripe fruit to meld even better, give it a year.
variety: Portuguese Red
designation: Reserva
