Post by Walt R. »

I am looking for any tasting notes on the 1997 Delaforce Quinta Da Corte.

A local seller is offering at $39.95.

As far as I can tell, no-one on this site has yet tasted this particular wine. The only reference I can find is from James Suckling, who was very impressed with the wine in February 2000 - rating it at 95 points and recommending that it is drunk after 2007.

For $40, I would buy at least one and try it. Please let us know what you think.

Walt,

Welcome to the forum, glad to have you. I got 1/2 a case of these on sale just over a year ago and for some unknown reason I never got around to trying one. I think I will have to change that in the next month or two.

I agree with Alex, give it a go. And be sure to let us know how it was.
