1991 Croft

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep red and looking promising. Mushroom and wet cardboard on the nose. A sip confirms the fear - this is slightly tainted by TCA. Not enough to destroy the wine but enough to leave it sharp and unpleasant on the palate. What a shame. NR. June 2015.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

2026: Quinta das Carvalhas 80YO Tawny
