2008 Valriz LBV

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Offered at EUR 7.41 ex-cellars. Bottled 2012. Deep red colour with a medium width transparent rim. Attractive nose of poised fruit. Fruit led impact on the palate that is sweet and delicious, slightly jammy but with gentle tannin support. Delicate jammy finish. Good length. This is very easy drinking - straightforward and delivers well. 83/100. Drunk 03-Jun-14.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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