1998 Casa Ferreirinha Colheita Douro

Post by Ronald Wortel »

I had this wine some years ago and was happy to find another bottle. Enjoyed while in Portugal.

Still looking young and lively, it shows lovely dark fruit on the nose. Elegant and complex, this keeps on building in the mouth. Cherries, earthy, and asian spice fill the mouth. This is still very much alive. Even better, it will continue to improve with further cellaring. Great stuff.

I've only ever seen the 1998 of this type of wine, but would love to taste another year as well. Does anyone if they released any?
