2007 Quinta de Roriz

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep purple-red in colour, still opaque. Gentle nose, soft and perfumed - gently attractive. Soft entry with a lovely minerality to the bramble fruit; the tannins have softened and are nicely rounded to give an enduring charcoal support. Lovely fruit finish, great length. A really nice wine, elegant and balanced. 87/100. Drunk at the BBR Port Walk on 28 November 2013.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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