2020 Warre

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

A limited edition released to commemorate the 350th anniversary of the founding of the firm of Warre. The grapes are exclusively from the Cavadinha vinhas velhas vineyards with the harvest being about half normal volumes. This tasting was a snapshot event by Symington Family Estates to launch their two wines from the 2020 vintage.

An amazing nose. Big fruit, floral, perfumed; so complex, so well constructed. Fabulous wine with the wonderful Warre elegance right from the start. 94-96/100. Tasted 04-Jul-22.
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!
