NV Fonseca Bin 27

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep red and opaque. Restrained nose. Pronounced soft tannins wrapped around sweet purple fruit - more grown up than the Taylor First Estate. Gentle fruit and nutskin aftertaste and a big, chewy and very fine finish. This could be cellared for 2-3 years. 86/100. Drunk 03-Jun-14.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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