1977 Quinta do Cachão: Nosing lightly of red fruit, and also of sugar. Brown sugar, said somebody. A hint of green. A little heat in the mouth, with length—though the later taste predominantly sticky. 6-5, or thereabouts.
Later in the evening had acquired a pleasant mint smell.
JL: “more unfocussed than the
Niepoort†.
Very satisfactory quaffing port. Nothing remarkable or great, but fine drinking. My second experience of Cachão, the other (
1970) being similar. Will buy if cheap. Please don’t bid against me.
Question: do Cachão and Messias have grapes in common, or just the vinification facilities?
Question: how is “Cachão† correctly pronounced?
