1906 Quinta de Brunheda - Colheita Port (Douro, Portugal)

Roy visited this Quinta the week before and asked them to bottle a single 75cl for him from the only barrel of this nectar in existence. Solid mahogany body with a terracotta rim. The haunting nuances of antique furniture and hints of volatile acidity carried all the way up my nose. Sip after sip revealed fine crème brule, brown sugar, liquid dry figs and dates. So easy to drink, so much satisfaction. My WOTN, and once again thank you Roy for this once in a lifetime opPortunity. 96/100.

What a terrific experience Nicos. Hopefully you had some charming company to share with?!!

Bob,
Roy was amongst the charming company, along with the other players as posted on the Crusting Pipe offline notes. It was a special Port, and I was very fortunate to have had a chance to try it.
