Quinta da Serradinha 2019 Tinto, Baga, Lisboa, Portugal July and dried herbsGeek Alert: Like the Serradinha Castelao et al above, this is a really intriguing red. This 100% Baga has all of the savory notes and terroir expression of the wine above, but with a little darker fruit, more weight, depth and structure. Delicious and complex now, this Baga will only improve and gain in complexity over the next decade. Ive enjoyed Bagas with 20+ years on them, and I imagine this wine will drink well for 20+ years too. Go for it.
