2008 Cockburn Quinta dos Canais Vintage Port
Posted: Sat Aug 07, 2010 5:38 am
A cask sample tasted blind as part of this review of the 2008 vintage.
Violets on the nose. Nice thick entry with lots of dark, brooding fruits. Powerful and robust with a solid backbone of acidity and tannin. Everything about this wine feels big and well composed. The finish is long and mouth-watering. Very good port. 91 points.
