Monte da Ravasqueira - 2005 14.5% Deep purple blackish red in color, dense! This wine brings the oak with a smokey nose that shows some bacon fat, light violet, and black currents. Big oak, big acid med tannins...a bit dried out as far as fruit goes. Seems the oak is the star here. With some air you see a few berries sneak in and some meat notes.The alcohol becomes an issue for me too on this one. Just a bit too rich with not enough fruit. 3/5 With about an hour of air this wine really became nice with much more fruit showing up. August 11, 2007
