Rated 91 - The 2021 Coz’s Castelão from António Marques-da-Cruz and Tiago Teles is one of their newer vineyards, as these Castelão vines were planted only eight years ago, in a vineyard just north of Lisbon. The wine is fermented with native yeasts and raised in old Burgundy barrels for just under one year prior to bottling. The 2021 tips the scales at a svelte 12.5 percent alcohol and offers up a complex bouquet of sweet dark berries, cigar wrapper, a beautiful base of soil, a touch of sweet botanicals, coffee bean and a smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is medium-full, tangy and very transparent in personality, with a good core, tangy acids, fine focus, modest tannins and lovely length and grip on the complex finish. This wine has the weight of good Cru Beaujolais and the lovely complexity of the Castelão grape. A fine bottle. 2023-2045. - View from the Cellar

Country: Portugal

Most of us are quick to associate Portugal primarily with the excellent fortified wines which come out of the Porto area, but there is much more to Portuguese viticulture than just this. Perhaps the most popular still wines the country produces are the varieties from the Vinho Verde region, which uses grapes that do not achieve high doses of sugar, meaning the wines are at their best when young and full of natural, springy fruit flavors The wines of the Douro region have undergone many transformations in their flavor and character over the centuries; once regarded as a bitter wine, the exporters experimented with fortifying the wine with brandy. After several centuries, vintners found a balance in the modern age which is at once reminiscent of Port wine, yet with the structure and character closer to other fine Portuguese wines. Thanks to the appellation system of Portugal and the strict laws governing wine production, Portuguese wines continue to maintain their reputation for quality and the distinctive characteristics they carry.
