TN: 2001 Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port

Post by Al B. »

Decant: Just Opened - Young and opaque red. Minty nose, perfumed and elegant. Fruity entry, dry, before a huge wave of acidity that just makes the mouth water uncontrollably. This slowly gives way to gripping tannins that are in turn replaced by pure blueberry juice. Aftertaste is dominated by the fruit, but is a touch short, leaving sticky lips. 89 points
