1999 Luis Pato Quinta do Moinho Beiras, Portugal, Magnum (1.5L) Raul Perez Blend of different plotsQuinta do Moinho was planted in 1989 on a vineyard with slightly more clay and surrounded by a eucalyptus forest, the Moinho typically has darker fruit and a lovely herbaceous character that gives it an almost Cabernet like quality. When aged these wines can be a dead ringer for cooler vintage Bordeaux.
