Burnished copper colour, 40% opaque. Gentle nose, slightly nutty with a touch of mild VA and some spiciness. Smooth entry, then a powerful and biting acidity on the palate surrounded by rich, sweet spiced cherries. Very flavoursome. Very, very hot on the aftertaste; a long and extremely tasty finish. This is a very well made, fully mature port, full of spices and dried red fruit. 89/100. May 2015.
