1985 Dalva Vintage Port
Posted: Sat Jan 14, 2012 5:11 pm
Decant: Pop 'n' pour - Mid orange in colour, paling on the rim; perhaps 20% opaque. Well balanced entry on the palate, with hints of sweet orange but considerable sherbert lemon acidity; a touch of VA on the palate adds to the complexity. Big palate presence. Big aftertaste, with a long and loud finish of intense kumquat flavours. Impressive. 87 points
