2004 Croft LBV Port

[Mark D]

Opened 10/28/09

Unfiltered. Bottled 2009. Half bottle.

Much better than the likes of a lot of filtered LBV (all but given up with LBV!), it has richer plumminess and better balance. The sweetness balances with the fruit nicely (Prunes and plums), with a good acidity in the background, the tannins providing a little grip.

Not the most complex port in the world, but I liked it.
