2004 Croft LBV
Another of the Tesco half bottles sold by the cartload in 2010. Bottled 2009. Dark red in colour, opaque. Faint nose, fruity and slight green wood. Powerful on the palate, full of fruit and surprisingly tannic. Strong dose of acidity on the aftertaste and a long finish. Surprisingly powerful. 85/100. Opened 14-Feb-16. Decanted 2 days.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.
2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
