Deep purple and with a narrow transparent rim; opaque centre. Very little on the nose, just some vague bruised fruit. Smooth in texture on the palate, with some bramble fruit and very gentle tannins. A very soft port for current drinking. 83/100. Drunk 03-Jun-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!
