2007 Croft

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Fruity, slightly aggressive and a touch tanky on the nose. Hollow entry, mineral dominated showing little of Croft's typical luscious fruit at first. Dry tannins support the mid-palate fruit bit the balance is missing. Delicious chewy fruit-salad sweet finish and a great length. Perhaps this is just starting to close down. 92/100. Drunk 14-May-14.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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