Vintage Port

"Lively and dense with real richness but a correct structure. Some floral notes and some dry tannins on the finish. Not quite married but a definite tea flavour."

Intense, deep-ruby colour; on the nose bursting with concentrated scents of violets, black cherry and blackcurrant fruit.

"Intensely concentrated in flavor, without being jammy, this lingers on the gripping finish after starting with a touch of mint."

"Ripe, moderately intense, tasty aromas of damp earth, tar, and black fruits are followed by a full-bodied wine with excellent richness..."

 The lavish palate bursts with a harmonious blend of black and red fruits, intricate layers, and a well-defined structure that gracefully lingers on the palate.

The wine has a cloudy garnet-red color and a sweet aroma of plums and black prunes, with a hint of woody mustiness.

"A great surprise for the vintage. Displays fabulous concentration and complex character with it's layers of very sweet fruit, chocolate and cherry aromas and flavors."

"Full-bodied and medium sweet, with big round tannins. Lasts for minutes on the palate."

"Sweet and easy in some ways, this is readily approachable now, perhaps not at peak, but more expressive than the relatively brooding Dow's, also reviewed."
