Quinta Nova Pomares 2008, Douro, Portugal

The nose alone, let's you know you are into old world territory.  This wine's complex aromatics; cherries, plums, raspberrys, sweet spices, church wood and soft leather.  The mouth feel is well structured with balanced acidity and grainy tannins. Long berry with refreshing acidity on the finish.  A truly enjoyable and charming wine.  I enjoyed this wine with Vietnamese food.
