1987 Cockburn Quinta do Tua

Post by Eric Menchen »

Tasted blind, but known to be a Port. This started with some light fruit aromas, like dried strawberry. The flavor was really nice, with lots of fruit, and mild warmth. Medium bodied, with a good strong finish. 93 points. I ruled out Dow, Graham, and Taylor, and that left me with 1992 Fonseca. This just goes to show that 1987 was really a strong vintage.
