Pi17: Soft texture, with dark plum, and great balance between acid and tannin. Dry ending.

C6: A lightly prickly high toned nose yet maintains a darker fruit profile. A lovely fruit perfume runs through the palate. Bright. Great acid cut and very drinkable today-indeed difficult to spit. The structure is lighter, or extremely well hidden. Quite delicious – but what does its future hold..is this for near term?

2 days after the tasting at the Boot & Flogger, I was able to try this again. Smooth, with fabulous velvet fruit, deeper and more luscious than the Quevedo also drunk at the same time. Tremendous layers of flavour lying over the top of big, bold tannins. Long, long finish. This is a great Port. 94-96/100 and is available in the UK.

Hi Alex,
In May I had the pleasure to visit Sandra and at the end of the tasting she made me taste her VP '17 from cask. I knew (and loved!!) her VP '15 and '16, but this '17 blew me away, exactly for the reasons you described so eloquently. Sandra and Jorge make fabulous wines and Ports!
