I wanted to open something special for Father's Day weekend and I have 4 bottles of this, so I decided to give it a try. This is a very nice drinking, smooth Port. It's a drier White Port with a low level of sweetness that melds perfectly with the acidity. It has a nice, long, smooth finish to it. DR really knows what they're doing when it comes to aged Tawnies and Whites. 94 points
