TN: 1985 Fonseca Vintage Port

Post by Stewart T. »

  • 1985 Fonseca Vintage Port - Portugal, Douro, Porto
    Intense, dark, opaque purple in color. Old dusty oak with some wonderful blackberry notes and just a touch of mocha on the nose. Extremely well-structured palate. Pronounced grape flavors with excellently balanced tannins and acidity on the finish. We agreed that this has a VERY low level of TCA, but in the end, it didn't affect the flavor profile in any noticeable way. (95 pts.)
