2004 Croft LBV Port
Posted: Tue Apr 20, 2010 4:28 am
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.
