A new brand from an old estate for DFJ Vinhos, Rocio is powerfully dark colored, complex and concentrated. Tannins are contained within a structure that is initially severe and then round out into juicy black currant flavors, always tempered with firm tannins.——R.V.(8/1/2011)—— 90

An intriguing blend of Syrah, Merlot, Touriga Nacional and Grenache has produced a delicious, ripe, smooth wine of considerable elegance. The wine floats on the palate, its tannins acting as a light cushion to the berry fruits, coffee and smoked meat flavors, a very sophisticated wine. ——R.V.(11/1/2008)—— 92
