1982 Smith Woodhouse LBV
Sweet fruit on the nose, attractive and delicious. Smooth and balanced on the palate, packed with elegant fruit. This grows on the palate and delivers a lovely and complex palate. Light and lively with great balance. Fruity but with a fresh green edge. The finish is enjoyable; this is a lovely port that is mature but not in need of drinking any time soon. 91/100. 17-Mar-16.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
