D91: bright red, 80% opaque. Nosing of perfume, and very very floral. Full texture. Lots of heat, Lighter in mouth than was heralded by the nose. Shorter than ideal. A lovely start, but weak at the end.

Dull nose - full in the mouth - lots of black plum lots of tannin and, believe it or not, a dry finish. Very good Port.
