TN: 1948 Warre Vintage Port
Posted: Thu Sep 02, 2010 12:31 am
Decant: 8 hours - From a bottle with considerable liquid sitting between the top of the cork and the wax seal. Pale brown colour, light; looking elderly. Dry and dusty nose, with some restrained mandarin. Dry entry, fruit is tired; harsh and acidic. Stays unblanaced on the palate. Very long aftertaste of milky coffee, surprising and enjoyable. Easily the best feature of this wine. A wine which is tired and fading, well past its prime. 84 points
