2012 Kopke Sao Luiz
Scarlet in colour, 99% opaque at the centre. A wonderful perfumed nose, full of raspberries and roses on a summer's evening. Fruit and that flower fragrance dominates the entry. On the palate the fruit is light and elegant and wonderfully floral but the powerful dry tannins give plenty of structure. The finish is big and fruit led and has a good length. This is a lovely style of port. 91-93/100. Tasted 05-Mar-15.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
