2000 Sandeman

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep red and opaque. Lovely on the nose with lots of fruit that is ripe and red. Sweet fruit entry, the sweet fruit continues through the palate and dominates even when the big tannins show. Dry plum stones show on the finish, which gives way to the sweet, concentrated fruit over the soft tannins. Nice port. 91/100. Drunk 23-Apr-14.
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!
