1991 Fonseca Guimaraens

Post by benread »

This was from a 0.375 cl bottle.

Decanted 8.30pm and drunk from 10.30pm.

Medium red translucent colour. Mostly spirit on the nose. Very fruity and lots of tannis but very drinkable as a 1991. I opened this because of the current 1991 v. 1992 poll. If only I had some 1992 as well!

If I had to venture an Uncle Tom score it would be 5-6. Very nice but I think it may get better.
