1998 Fonseca Guimaraens vintage port
Deep red, opaque centre. Open and attractive nose of brambles and blueberries. Full bodied in the mouth with voluptuous fruit and soft tannins. Attractive development but a pretty clipped aftertaste. Served by the glass in a bar so this may have been open a little too long. 88/100. Drunk 11/2/08.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.
