Score 91/100 · Drink 2020-2026, Mark Squires, Oct 2020
The 2010 Meandro do Vale Meão is a blend of 45% Touriga Nacional, 30% Touriga Franca, 13% Tinta Roriz and small bits of others. When last seen some eight years back, this was lovely. How has it aged? Just great, particularly in terms of structure. The fruit is a bit behind, but it's still excellent for the moment, nuanced and complex. Overall, it seems more interesting than when I first saw it. Vibrant and still showing some tannic pop, this has come together well enough to be supple. It adds some complexity around the edges. It should continue to drink very well for several more years, at least.
