Companhia Das Quintas Reserva (Quinta Da Farizoa)

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：2346

The 2002 Reserva (Quinta da Farizoa) is a blend of Trincadeira, Alfrocheiro, Aragonez, Cabernet Sauvignon and Alicante Bouschet and spent one year in oak. The Reserva feels fuller in the mouth than the 2003 Tinto at first, but with air, it seems a bit short and eventually becomes a little hollow. It does have grip on the finish, and it is pleasant enough for the short term, but it is not going anywhere good with time, so drink sooner rather than later. It should be considered fully ready. Drink now-2012. Founded in 1999 and formally registered as “Sociedade Agricola da Quinta do Romeira de Cima,” this company trades under the umbrella name Companhia das Quintas (literally, “the Estates Company”), signifying its acquisition and ownership of six Quintas in various regions, the latest acquisition being Quinta de Pancas. As the formal name implies, they are headquartered at Quinta do Romeira, an estate with roots going back to the early 17th century.Importer for Cado: Signature Imports, Mansfield, MA; tel: (800) 667-0750.
