"What a fantastic discovery this ultra-rare 2011 Vinha das Arzilhas from Joaquim Almeida (Vale de Pios) is! … This wine is a testament to the Upper Douro’s ability to produce wines full of freshness and character. A beautiful wine, over a decade old, displaying notes of black fruit and dark chocolate alongside tertiary aromas of leather, dried herbs, tar and black tea. A truly great wine that honours the excellence of Portuguese viticulture."
