1995 Fonseca Guimaraens

Post by g-man »

Decanted for 30 minutes

Dark opaque red with just the slightest hint of bricking around the rim.

lovely nose of freshly plucked strawberries and baked plums with a black licorice component

Smooth but very noticeable tannins gives way to cherry, raspberry compote and finishing strong with vanilla, oak, more tannins and a lovely throat feel that remind me of some of the finer whiskeys i've had.

impressive but very young
92.
