Rich red colour, starting to soften. Attractive blackcurrant nose, sharp and hard. Restrained fruit on th palate, dominating over the firm tannins. This rewards patience, holding the port on the tongue allows good development of fruit. Big tannic aftertaste and a delightful long finish. Delicious - young but very drinkable. 88/100. 10-Jun-12. Decanted 1 hour.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
