"Bold and juicy, the wine is ripe and rich. Its spice and tannins have integrated well with the black plum fruits and plum skin texture." - Wine Enthusiast
"The 2018 Cartuxa red is a blend of 40% Aragonez, 20% Alicante Bouschet, 30% Trincadeira and the rest Castelão, aged for 12 months in 80% used French oak. It comes in at 14.5% alcohol. Elegant, caressing and sensual in texture, this is a perfectly balanced red that doesn't have any one thing hit you over the head, but it always seems hard to put down. This is a great choice for a house pour or restaurant wine. It seems to have more finesse than I've often seen in the past. It should hold well, but I'm less sure it has a lot of potential to improve. Let's lean up for the moment." - Robert Parker
