2000 Sandeman

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep red and opaque. Lovely on the nose with lots of fruit that is ripe and red. Sweet fruit entry, the sweet fruit continues through the palate and dominates even when the big tannins show. Dry plum stones show on the finish, which gives way to the sweet, concentrated fruit over the soft tannins. Nice port. 91/100. Drunk 23-Apr-14.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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