2003 Warre LBV

Post by Rubby »

Bottled 2008. Filtered.

• decant +1:
Very dark red with cherry red rim. There's something bitter on the palette that's not very nice. Some tannins. Cherries and a hint of dark chocolate on the nose. On the palette hardly anything more than cherries and prunes.

The next few hours didn't change anything about this Port.

• decant +24:
Not much difference with yesterday. Luckily the bitterness has disappeared. Something of rhubarb has come into the nose. Sadly there's nothing exciting about this Port.

I liked the Warre LBV 2001 much better than this one. It hasn't got enough depth and richness to keep me interested. I'm almost ashamed to say it: a cheap ruby.
