Still quite grapy. Very jammy; huge overload of fruit. In the mouth blackberries but it is a complete lack of tannin was most obvious and surprising. Quite floral. Very quaff-able.

Deep red, still with a hint of purple; opaque. Violets and blueberries leap from the glass, noticeably herbaceous. Silky entry, full of blueberry. Massive palate presence, with a huge fruit impact. Tannins are firm but almost hidden by the fruit. Very peppery. Huge finish, aftertaste is dry and full of tobacco. The finish is long and dominated by blackcurrant skins. Delicious port, massively promising for the future. 92/100.
