1992 Andresen Colheita Port
Bottled 2007 (15 years in wood). A nice, light brown. It almost looks like iced tea in the glass. Smooth but spicy, it tastes of butterscotch and cinnamon. Warming, but not hot with a nice, long aftertaste. This is a very nice colheita. I came across a lone 750 ml. bottle for $30 which is a great QPR. My very first tasted Colheita from Andresen. 92 points.

Apparently so. I have 3 bottles of the '80 and a bottle of the '82 in my cellar. I'll have to try the '80 in the next few months.
The '92 kept on getting better and better. I polished it off last night. I'll have to keep my eye out to see if I stumble across another bottle down the road.

I love Andresen's Colheita also! They have that richness that is well balanced with the striking acidity that gives a good bite!
I recently ordered some from them, 80,92,95,98. I'd say 95 was the one that impressed me the most, especially for the price.
I've recently tasted their 10 year old new blend, it is also fantastic, just ordered 4 more. They'll soon release a new packaging too, well made.
