Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep red with a mature tone, 90% opaque. Sharp on the nose, aggressive and young. Fruit led entry, slightly sharp with fresh cranberries. Sharp on the finish and a good length. Light and fresh in style with few tannins in evidence. 84 04-May-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!
