1999 Malvedos

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Too dark to properly make out the colour. Attractive nose, well developed showing plums and sage. Rich and sweet mouthfeel, with spicy acidity on the mid-palate. Rich plum flavours but a dry tannin holds firm through the entire palate. A touch hot on the aftertaste, but this opens to a very attractive and very long dark chocolate and sweet blackcurrant finish. Deliciously pepper! Tasty, but still so young and vigorous. 88/100.
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!
