2007 Quinta do Portal vintage port

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Pure primary purple. Violets and blackcurrants leap out of the glass. Violet cream fruit dominate the palate but tannins fur the teeth. Stunning levels of fruit, pure and ripe. Tannic aftertaste with a gorgeous fruit undertone of ripe Victoria plum. Fabulous. 91/100.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
