They&#8217;re all really good. The Branco and Bastardo are probably my favourites, though. And the label design is just wonderfully eccentric.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conceito Branco 2009 Douro<br \/>\n<\/strong> 13.5% alcohol. Distinctively packaged. Taut and intense nose with fresh citrus and grapefruit pith notes, as well as some white peach and intense toastiness. The palate is broad but well defined with nuts, toast, citrus, spice and good acidity. Really fine and Burgundian with potential for development. 93\/10<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conceito Tinto 2008 Douro<br \/>\n<\/strong>14% alcohol. A lovely expression of the Douro: sweetly fruited nose with a hint of new oak and fresh dark cherry and spice notes. The palate has ripe cherry and berry fruits, but also lovely fresh acidity and elegant structure. Finely wrought already, but with potential for evolution. 93\/100<\/p>\n<p><strong> Conceito Contraste Tinto 2008 Douro<br \/>\n<\/strong> 13.5% alcohol. Attractive sweet black cherry and blackberry nose, with fresh mineral and tar notes. Quite complex. The palate has nice balance between the sweet fruit and some gravelly, mineral savouriness, with grippy tannins. Fresh, taut and delicious. 92\/100<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conceito Bastardo 2009 VR Duriense<br \/>\n<\/strong> 13% alcohol. An early maturing variety with weak colour that was popular in the 18th century, but has now steadily abandoned. Pale cherry red colour. Wonderful sweet aromatics: warm herbs, cherry fruit. So pure and elegant with a leafy edge. The palate is smooth, warm and sweetly fruited. Light and superbly elegant with lovely cherry and herb notes, and subtle tannins. Lovely wine. 93\/100<\/p>\n<p>Find these wines with\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wine-searcher.com\/index.lml?referring_site=WAN\" target=\"_blank\">wine-searcher.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Very impressed by these new releases from Rita Ferreira&#8217;s Conceito.
