It comes in at 14.1% alcohol. This is simply enticing in its finesse and its elegance. It is understated, without a lot of flesh, but with that old-school focus and precision. The tannins are evident but not too hard. There is plenty of flavor on the fresh and long finish, more than on the Ujo, its sibling. This is a rounder, fleshier wine, although not by a lot. It is not an attention-getter style in the lineup, unless you\u2019re paying attention to its grace, its structure and its long finish, of course. It still has to prove that it can develop and become more special, but it should do exactly that. Let\u2019s start here. We\u2019ll see where it goes in a few years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"review-author\">Mark Squires, Robert Parker &#8211; Aug 2019<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5184 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/quintadaboavista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/RP_Logo-EarthBrown-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"145\" height=\"82\" \/>[\/vc_carousel_son][vc_carousel_son]<\/p>\n<p class=\"points\">18,5<\/p>\n<p class=\"total-points\">\/20 Pts<\/p>\n<p class=\"review-description\">Muito rico mas ainda fechado no aroma, de novo com a barrica de enorme qualidade presente ainda que sem a impress\u00e3o esmagadora que tinha deixado em edi\u00e7\u00f5es anteriores.

It comes in at 13.6% alcohol. At least from this tasting, this is no better than the 2014, perhaps a step behind. It does add that flavor component that the 2014 lacked, but it doesn&#8217;t seem quite as powerful or as concentrated. On the happy side, the fruit is more vivid and it is notably less rustic. It seems a little understated\u2014or perhaps a bit closed. It is still pretty beautiful, silky, bright, fresh and chock-full of flavor. It may well improve with a bit more time in bottle\u2014it did tighten notably from my first to my third taste (&#8230;). There is a good chance this can wake up and flesh out. Stick it in the cellar for a few years. There is some upside potential and it may surprise us.<\/p>\n<p class=\"review-author\">Mark Squires, Robert Parker &#8211; Aug 2018<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5184 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/quintadaboavista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/RP_Logo-EarthBrown-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"145\" height=\"82\" \/>[\/vc_carousel_son][vc_carousel_son]<\/p>\n<p class=\"points\">94<\/p>\n<p class=\"total-points\">\/100 Pts<\/p>\n<p class=\"review-description\">The 2014 Vinha do Orat\u00f3rio Vinhas Velhas (Quinta da Boavista) is a field blend from a specific and small, old-vines (around 90 years) plot in the vineyard, aged for approximately 20 months in new French barriques. It comes in at 14% alcohol. This certainly seems like one of the finer successes of the 2014 vintage in this subregion. It is a tribute to the winery that it produced so many interesting 2014s. Granting that they are not side by side right now, there doesn&#8217;t seem to be a lot of difference here compared to last year&#8217;s beauty. This is tight and powerful, perhaps a bit drier and sterner than usual, but nicely concentrated. Some fruit does emerge with air, though. This hard-edged tinto really needs some time to develop in the cellar, moderate its tannins and acquire more harmony. Put it away for three to five years, at least. Its crisp edge, serious backbone and well-crafted mid-palate should give it a bright future. I say that even while always having some fear that, in general, wines in vintages like this often do not reward aging and fall off faster than one might suspect. This should go 30 years, but let&#8217;s take that in stages for the moment. It&#8217;s a new brand and a tough year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"review-author\">Mark Squires, Robert Parker &#8211; Aug 2017<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5184 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/quintadaboavista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/RP_Logo-EarthBrown-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"145\" height=\"82\" \/>[\/vc_carousel_son][vc_carousel_son]<\/p>\n<p class=\"points\">94<\/p>\n<p class=\"total-points\">\/100 Pts<\/p>\n<p class=\"review-description\">The 2013 Vinha do Orat\u00f3rio Vinhas Velhas (Quinta da Boavista) is a field blend from a single vineyard planted in 1930, aged for 18 months in new French oak (co-owner Tony Smith implied that will change&#8211;but at the moment, since this is their first harvest, new oak is all they have, he said). He added that this &#8220;contains some of the highest terraces in the Douro \u2013 some measuring over 8 meters tall.&#8221; It comes in at 13.5% alcohol. After acquiring this Quinta from Sogrape recently, Lima &amp; Smith clearly intend to make a statement with the terroir. Crisp and fresh, this has big power and old-school mid-palate finesse. Laced with dark flavors, plums and blue fruit, this has fine grip on the finish, but it is just a bit too tight to approach now. It seems to have a bright future&#8211;almost as bright as the wine&#8217;s demeanor&#8211;but it is wholly unevolved.
