1997 Martinez Vintage Port

Post by WS1 »

opened with DrDirk for Christmaspudding and vanilla ice. Very nice, lighter style, needs air. Very good Port, but be aware that it is for early drinking. No worries this means within 20 years from now. Red goosberry, very primary fruit, mixture of strawberry and rasberry; very fresh and soft. Slightly nutty and hints of Almonds. Medium body/structure and medium finish. Overall very nice but nothing special!
