2007 Sainsbury LBV

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Symington Family Estates. Deep red in colour, 80% opaque. Little on the nose. Restrained fruit and a lack of balance on the initial palate, awkwardly acidic. Generous fruit and assertive tannins on the palate. There is a big finish with a long and persistent aftertaste. 84/100. Drunk 24 April 2013 at the 2007 LBV post BFT offline.
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!
