Posted: Mon Dec 20, 2010 5:16 pm
Tasted at Porto Quevedo in S. João da Pesqueira on 06-OCT-2010 as part of the 2010 Port Harvest Tour.
1996 Quevedo Colheita (cask #18 sample)
Smooth and very even. Beautiful. An excellent example of a young Colheita. Honey, vanilla, and faint oak. Wonderful right out of the cask!
Score: 92 points. I noted this as the best drinking right now of the 3 Colheitas we tried ('96, '94, '92).
