12.11.2018

Wine Enthusiast US magazine gave 92 points in the wine review of Fonte do Ouro Reserva Especial Encruzado 2017 and Fonte do Ouro Reserva Especial Touriga Nacional 2015.

Roger Voss, European editor and wines reviewer from Portugal and France, gave 92 points in the taste of Fonte do Ouro Reserva Especial Touriga Nacional 2015. “This is an impressive Touriga Nacional from its home region. Aged for 12 months in wood, it has mint and eucalyptus flavors to add to the dark tannic fruit. Blackberries and juicy acidity are combined with the core of tannins to deliver a powerful statement that needs some more time to mature. Drink from 2019”, wrote Voss in the magazine.

Fonte do Ouro Reserva Especial Encruzado 2017 received 92 points too and also the Editors’ Choice mention. “This rich, wood-aged Encruzado is ripe, packed with toastiness plus apple and yellow-fruit flavors. With spice and lovely acidity, the wine is opulent, elegant and ready to drink in 2019″, said Voss about it.
