O Produtor, tasting note published in September 4th 2022
With its intense garnet colour and deep aroma of ripe plums and hints of red fruit, Duchess Maria Private Selection takes us to the region's warmest plains. On the palate, the tannins are present, very well balanced and well combined with woody notes. The finish is long and elegant.
