The 2005 “Monte Da Peceguina” is 40% Aragones, 20% Alicante Bouschet, 15% Touriga Nacional, 15% Syrah and 10% Alfrocheiro. It was aged for six months in a combination of new American and French oak barrels. It is bright, but a little soft, with a slightly candied cherry nuance on the finish initially. It seemed to me that the Alicante Bouschet was very prominent early on. The wine did wake up with an hour’s air and show a little better than its initial, simple performance. With air, the fruit component integrated a bit better, and I began to like its flavor profile more. It is reasonably tasty and attractive for short to mid-term drinking, but not particularly complex. Drink 2007-2014. There were 9,166 cases (of twelve) produced.Importer: Quintessential, Napa, CA; tel. (914) 725-3479
