S45. Red, 40% opaque. Not much nose. Again, strawberry early palate. Mid-palate dry and smokey. Overall, lighter than ideal, especially for a ’45.

20% opaque, deep orange in colour. Closed on the nose, showing very little - actually a little unpleasant. Sweet in the mouth, medium bodied; although sweet, only showing a little fruit initially. The fruit grows on the secondary palate to very good levels. Lovely aftertaste, intense flavours which slowly fade on the finish. 92/100.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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