The 2013 'Stanley Groovy' by The Walls is a fantastic new release from this estate. This wine is an intriguing blend of Toriga Nacional, Souzao, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Cao. The wine starts with aromatics of sagebrush, blueberry compote, cassis, rose petals and a hint of white pepper. There are flavors reminiscent of blackberry cobbler, sage, blueberry compote, black raspberry, allspice, and an underlying creosote edge. With a plush texture and a seamless mouthfeel, this gorgeous wine drinks remarkably well right now. This is a very novel and smooth effort from this estate that will cellar gracefully into the next decade. (Best 2016-2026) - June, 2016 (OB)
