2012 Quinta da Revolta

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep purple and opaque. Really nice, expressive blackcurrant nose. Big fruit on the palate but with immense tannins and cheek-burning acidity. Great presence on the palate but perhaps lacking a little complexity. Alcohol shows early on the finish but this fades away to reveal some delicate violets. 88-90/100. 05-Mar-15.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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