2013 Bulas

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Inky purple colour, completely opaque. Gentle on the nose bringing soft blueberry fruit and a delicious herbaceousness. Sweet and elegant onto the palate, a mass of sweet fruit on the mid-palate and the tannins kick in with a vengeance. Dry and chewy on the aftertaste before a fabulous ripe black cherry finish. This is a great powerhouse port which has really settled down in the bottle. 91/100. 24-May-17.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

2026: DR Very Old White, Graham Stone Terraces 2011, Quevedo Branco 1986 b.2026
