2000 Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port

Post by Eric Menchen »

Tasted blind in a vertical of Vesuvio. This also has some floral aroma (tasted after the 2003), although lighter than the previously tasted wine. I also has some dried fruit as well, and later the aroma gave more dark fruit, and cherry Sucrets. Great powerful fruit flavor, with tannins and acid. This has lots of potential, and is pretty good now. Later there was some orange citrus flavor, and some minerality. Initially guessed to be 1997, but later wondered if it could be 2000 or 2003. 94+ points.
