2014 Quinta do Vale Dona Maria

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Approved by the IVDP in March 2016. A youthful magenta in colour with a wonderful floral nose. Fragrant entry, with beautifully ripe fresh fruit - tasting of the colour purple. The tannins are ripe slightly green and very grippy and support a wonderfully perfumed mid-palate. The aftertaste is generous and lingers gently. Pleasing port. 87-89/100. 22-Apr-16
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
