Re: 1995 Quinta do Passadouro
Frim red colour, 80% opaque but with a hint of bricking on the rim. VA dominating the nose, full of sweet lychees. Sweet impact on the tongue, but flavours dominated by the VA; lots of violets and brambles lurk under the VA. Dry cocoa aftertaste that leads to a dry violet finish. Pleasant port. 82/100.
