AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Abandonado 2015 & 2017 — Alves de Sousa | Douro
A special lot is up for auction: 2 bottles of Abandonado from the producer Alves de Sousa, including the 2015 and 2017 vintages.
Abandonado is one of the most distinctive and emblematic wines of Alves de Sousa. It comes from an old vineyard over 80 years of age, planted on an extreme slate terroir with great exposure, where the vines’ own survival contributes to the extraordinary concentration and personality of the wine.
These are wines of great character, depth and aging potential, combining black and wild fruit, balsamic and mineral notes, spices, licorice, chocolate and hints of wood, supported by firm yet elegant tannins and a freshness that gives them balance and longevity. The 2015 stands out for its concentration, texture and refinement; the 2017 reveals an even more impressive depth, with mature tannins, great freshness and a long, spicy finish. (Falstaff)
The quality of these vintages is equally recognized by specialized critics:
Abandonado 2015 — 94 points Falstaff | 18.5/20 Grandes Escolhas
Abandonado 2017 — 93 points Falstaff | 19/20 Grandes Escolhas
An opportunity to acquire two vintages of one of the great terroir wines of the Douro, produced in naturally limited quantities by an old vineyard with truly unique characteristics.
