Tasted at The Big Fortified Tasting, a trade fair in London at Glaziers Hall on Wed 06 April 2011 (Review thread, containing links to other tasting notes). This being a large trade-fair event, tasting notes generally brief.
Ra07. Red-purple, 90% opaque. Much lighter than the Ra04, more approachable. Very floral, fresh and floral.

Beautiful floral nose, with the streak of herbaceousness that seems to be typical of the vintage. Sweet blueberry dominates the entry and firm tannins support the fruit. Huge fruity aftertaste with fantastic floral elegance. Lovely finish. 92/100.
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!
