2007 Sandeman LBV

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep red and intense, 95% opaque. Slow to develop on the palate; big, sweet fruit with lots of acidity and soft tannins. Air grows the tannins to be big and fierce, but soften quickly. Lively tannins on the finish, cheerful aftertaste. 85/100. 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!
