Anything but Port, this includes all wines other than fortified wines (which have their own section) even if they call themselves Port. There is a search facility for this part of the forum.

2005 Chateau du Gaby

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

This is a minor Canon-Fronsac wine from a good vintage. Full of ripe blackcurrant on the nose and palate, still very youthful. Generous fruit, soft tannins and modest acidty leaves an impression of an enjoyable wine with plenty of life ahead of it. Not a big wine, but a very nice one. 85/100.
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!
