2010 Quinta da Romaneira LBV

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled unfiltered in 2014 (the 2011 vintage is being bottled in April 2016). Deep cherry red with a medium rim. Delicious fruity nose. Smooth textured entry with a powerful fruit led mid palate, dominated by sweet red cherry and bitter blackcurrant. A huge fruit palate backed by gentle but green tannins. Delicious finish, long and full. 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!
