1944 Quinta da Devesa Colheita (bottled 2018)
Bottled 2018. Dark chestnut brown with a green rim; 40% opaque. Stunning nose, with many layers of complexity. A touch of vinagrinho, honey and orange. Beautiful. Thick and dense texture, generous citrus oil, honey and balsamic. Complex. Long, generous, lingering honey finish. This is an amazing wine which makes you smile when you smell it and sigh when you swallow it. Fabulous. 95/100. Tasted 10-Feb-22. Pop 'n' pour.
