2016 Dou Rosa, Tinto, Quinta de la Rosa, Douro, Portugal

The 2016 Tinto douROSA is unoaked and comes in at 14% alcohol. This is a fruity little Beaujolais-styled wine, but it typically does nicely. Its fresh fruit and vivid flavor are supported by its structure as a rule, some acidity to go with ripe tannins. Its freshness makes it sing. This is very pretty, a perfect summer red, something you can drink casually and a little cooler than normal.
