Named after the monastery of Farizoa in Alentejo, this is in a fresh, fruity style, packed with sweet damsons, some fresh acidity, but more in open, welcoming richness. For drinking over the next year.——R.V.(8/1/2010)—— 85

This offers fresh, red currant fruits, broadened with wood aging, with a tight edge of tannins and dryness. That said, it is showing early signs of maturity and is definitely ready to drink.——R.V.(8/1/2010)—— 86

Fruity and ripe, this is a spicy wine, with red cherry and berry flavors, livened by dried raisins. There is a rustic edge that puts it simply in its place, but the acidity is fine and so is the dry tannic core.——R.V.(11/1/2008)—— 84
