Torbreck, The Descendant 2004 Quinta Meandro do Vale MeaoThe 2004 Descendant is by far the most impressive release of this wine, the colour making that immediately apparent; completely black purple with healthy, vibrant magenta hues. A pure, wild, powerful nose of blackberry and tar is complimented by a gentle floral lift of lavender and violets.
