Detailed info
«The 2011 Carrocel Quinta da Pellada was aged for 22 months in two-year-old French oak and just bottled in November 2013. It is 100% Touriga Nacional. Of all the wines here, this is easily the most interesting and perhaps the most concentrated, while still retaining the elegance and grace Castro's wines typically show. It is surprisingly fresh and aromatic considering the time in oak, and it is already integrating its oak well. In its own, understated way, it is also quite sexy, showing those beautiful aromatics and fine flavor on the crisp finish.... If you like Castro's style-size isn't everything, and elegance has its rewards-it is one of those wines that will keep growing on you.»
