Posted: 21:46 Wed 21 Aug 2024
A nice mature red-brown colour, 80% opaque. Gentle red liquorice and softly spiced fruit on the nose. A stunning flavour profile; mature yet still sweet and spicy/ Wonderful spiced fruit on the aftertaste delivering immense length. A delightful and mature wine delivering beautiful sweet redcurrant concentrate and dusty tannins. This is drinking well but with plenty of time to improve in the cellar. Served blind, this was guessed to be Fonseca 1977. 94/100. Tasted 12-Aug-20. Decanted 7½ hours.
Tasted at the mid-COVID re-opening of the Boot & Flogger.
