Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Lovely mid red colour, youthful but not exuberant. Gentle nose of raspberries and crushed dock leaves. Smooth entry, lightly fruity with a nice perfume to the sweet summer berries. The tannins come through on the mid-palate, firm but not overwhelming. Sweet fruit aftertaste with a slightly green edge to the finish, which is of good length. 87/100. May 2015.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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