Big, sweet, voluptuous. Some lift and excitement. A little scrawny at the moment. Very tannic finish. 2012-2020 Rating: 17 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Sept 2011)

Quinta do Vesuvio's saturated blue/purple color is more dense than many of its peers. Impressive in the mouth, with full body, sweet creme de cassis and blackberry liqueur intermixed with smoke, earth, and spice, this sensual effort possesses elegance allied to power and authority. Complex, fat, rich, and intense, it is an exceptionally stylish, graceful effort to enjoy between 2006-2020+. Rating: 91+ Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, www.RobertParker.com (Sept 2011)

Lovely nose of plums, chocolate and berries, with hints of spices. Full-bodied, with super firm tannins and a tight tannic structure. Long and refined. It builds on your palate. Best after 2012. Rating: 94 James Suckling, The Wine Spectator (Mar 2005)
