1985 Warre

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Avalable from the Carlton Club @ £75 per bottle. Deep red colour, still opaque. Full of deep dark fruit on the palate, rich and powerful (which are not normally adjectives associated with Warre!). On the finish this is dominated by lots of black licorice. Very fine and very promising for 10 to 15 years time. 90/100. Drunk 03-Oct-17. Decanted 1 hour.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
