2011 Barros

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep red; light nose showing fruit and a nice seaside freshness. Lightweight entry with strong and slightly aggressive tannins, acidic fruit comes through on the mid-palate. A firm afteraste and a long finish of cinammon sours. 86-88. A snapshot tasting on 24 April 2013 at BFT 4.
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!
