2007 Quinta do Vale Dona Maria

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Crushed nettles and bitter blueberries. Big on the nose, big in the mouth with a soft and gentle structure. Tannins and fruit are big and very grippy. The tannic grip is huge at the start of the aftertaste, which is big and long. 89-91. Drunk 27 June 2009.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
