Jenny Ratcliffe-Wright CWM rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

A lovely modern version of a classic Douro blend. 3 traditional Portuguese grapes blended together to create a juicy, elegant sweet fruited palate. 12 Months of French oak rounds out the fruit to create an elegant and highly drinkable wine. Try with balsamic glazed steaks @wrightwineblog

Linda Mertes WSET 2 rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

A blend of native Portugese grapes- 55% Toriga Nacional, 40% Tinta Roriz and 5% Souzao. Plum, raspberry and raison aromas with vanilla and herbal notes. A long finish. Will pair well with lamb, and firm fish like salmon.

Natalie's Review

Quadrus Reserva 2011, Douro D.O.C., Portugal: Quadrus Reserva 2011 is a smooth and sensuously silky, full-bodied red from the Douro wine region produced from mostly Touriga Nacional wine grapes. From the Amaro brothers based out of Toronto, this is a nicely balanced, easy to enjoy dry red with dark plum, raspberry, figgy, mocha and smoky vanilla flavours smooth and elegant on the palate. Enjoy with veal stuffed Portobello mushrooms. Drink: 2019-2024. 29232 14% D 750 mL $28.95 Score: 89/100. May 22, 2021 Glorious Game Wine Full Review

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
