97/100 Robert Parker ( best from: 2026-2036 "The extremely young and elegant 2023 Charme is the most elegant red in their Douro profile. It's a groundbreaking wine produced in Vale Mendiz and Quinta de Napoles to increase the quantity (and quality) following the same logic—a short maceration of the full clusters in lagar, pressed to barrels where it finished fermenting and aged nine months. They use high-altitude vineyards with a mixture of grapes, including whites. It's floral and herbal, perfumed, elegant, fine-boned and balanced, with an elegant profile. It has terrific balance and should age gracefully. This follows the path of 2019 and 2021. 14,000 bottled produced."
