2005 Warre Cavadinha

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

WC05, deep red with a narrow rim and lots of sediment! Fragrant bubble gum nose. Lovely soft tannins support a generous plum jam palate. Slightly bitter and tannic tone to the fruit on the aftertaste slowly fades to a warm and spicy finish. Another Port I’d like to come back to in 5-10 years. 84/100.

Tasted at the Warre Cavadinha Vertical on 28th March 2023.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

2026: Quinta das Carvalhas 80YO Tawny
