2003 Ramos Pinto vintage port

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

60% Touriga Nacional, 30% Touriga Franca, 10% Tinta Roriz. Dark red and opaque. Youthful nose, still showing young fruit. Fabulous texture on the palate, full of fruit but with iron tannins that need lots of work to subdue them. A very fine port with a huge tannin dominated aftertaste. 94/100. Tasted at the BFT on 24 April 2013.
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!
