TEST RESULTS
The delicacy of Quinta dos Carvalhais Único 2015 is expressed both in the color and in the aromas. It is a wine with notes of black fruit and wild fruit, resinous nuances, aromas of forest, moss, pine, "sous-bois" and a very fresh minty touch. It is the exact expression of the terroir of Quinta dos Carvalhais. It has a firm and defined attack, with polished tannins, in a fresh, elegant and enveloping body.
