Pale in colour, light centre and a pale pink rim. Warm nose of cherry jam with a meaty / leathery overtone. Medium bodied; light and pleasant fruit and with a generous dose of tannins supporting a lovely sweet and spiced fruitiness. Very attractive and elegant aftertaste that is really worth working the cheeks to enjoy. Drink now or in the (near) future. 90/100. Drunk 28 June 2009.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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