1984 Warre Cavadinha

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

1984 Warre Cavadinha. Mature brick red colour, 70% opaque. Nice nose of attractive red fruit. Balanced on the palate showing good, ripe jellied red fruit. A lovely palate which fades quickly but doesn’t fade completely. 89/100. Guess: GM84. Was: WC84. Tasted 19-Feb-2025.
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!

Yellowing rim. Lovely front palate but finish a bit acrid.
