The 2012 vintage:
A simple, rustic Dao red.  Ripe red fruit, a bit of herbs in the background and decent supporting tannin.  Perhaps the acid is a bit out of balance but I'm nitpicking at the price.  Fine value for everyday drinking.  Portugal yet again is a source of super values.  tasted Jan 2016.

Typical, unmistakable Dao nose of earthy mocha and dried pine needles. Rusticity at a price to match.
