2013 Quinta do Portal Muros

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Quinta dos Muros from Portal. More scarlet in tone that the Bulas shown alongside, narrow rim. Lifted nose, full of sour concentrated blackcurrant. Generous tannins on the palate, with a green grassy tone mixed in with the fruit. The tannins become very fierce and powerful to give a very lively finish and a great length. This has the structure to age for decades. 88-90/100. Tasted 02-Mar-16
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!
