SIDONIO DE SOUSA VINHO D’AUTOR 2009

“Vinho D’Autor aka Winemaker’s Selection is a new project by the Sidonio de Sousa family that promises to release tiny amounts of special baga juice in a tiny range of selected vintages. 2009 is the first vintage the family has released and it is simply splendidly Portuguese baga. A little dirty, super earthy, complicated yet addictive, filled with dark deep cherried fruit, with a hint of herbs. Drink or hold. Either way, you’ll want more.”
