2004 Quinta do Vale Meão Vintage Port

[Eric Menchen]

Jammy berry aromas, with blueberry and red fruits too; but then that disappeared and floral aromas enter the scene; rose? Less fruity and juicy than the 2003, and a little thinner in body as well. This doesn’t seem as Port-like. After taking many sips, I found this better with a full mouthful, with more acid and improving fruit. But it still is not quite as complex and thick as I would like. 91 points.
