TN: 2003 Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port

Post by Al B. »

Decant: 3 hours - Opaque, dark rim and a pink glass. Floral blueberries, spicy and peppery over the top. So balanced on entry, dominated by fruit before the tannins grab attention. Lots of work and aeration will make the tannisn fall back a little to leave a lovely and complex wine with such elegant acidity. The aftertaste starts with a bubble gum tannin finish that shows dried cherries for a very long time. This is an amazing wine, extremely impressive. 96 points
