1908 Guedes Colheita (bottled 1982)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled 1982. Deep amber colour, 30% opaque. Powerful colheita nose that is attractive and delicious. There is a slight pepperiness to the flavours when the thick textured wine first hits the palate. Lots of honey and lemon to this intense and powerful port. A huge palate with a really surprising concentration. Massive sticky finish of amazing. 93/100. Drunk 24-Jun-14. Pop 'n' pour.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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