2007 Tesco LBV

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Symington Family Estates. Firm red colour, opaque. Little on the nose other than some gentle fruit. Lots of fruit on the palate, but a little light in texture, with gentle tannins. Good persistence of flavour on the aftertaste and finish. Not a bad port, but very light in texture. 82/100. Drunk 24 April 2013 at the 2007 LBV post BFT offline.
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!
