Anything but Port, this includes all wines other than fortified wines (which have their own section) even if they call themselves Port. There is a search facility for this part of the forum.

2005 Luis Pata Vinhos Barrosa

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Made principally from Baga from Barraida. Deep red centre showing a nice balance of youth and maturity. A wonderful nose of mature fruit, attractive yet still restrained. Nice and balanced on the palate with plenty of sweet fruit but powerful and ripe tannins. Big and impressive. Not scored (I forgot). Drunk 04-Sep-14. Decanted 1 hour.
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!
