For The Love Of Port

Decant: Not Known - Sold by the glass in El Vino, Fleet Street. Dark red in colour, solid rim, opaque centre. Closed on the nose, a touch of heat and a hint of blackcurrant. Fiercely acidic on the palate, but with a sweet dense fruit trying to get past. Light, slightly astringent tannins take a noticeable grip on the palate. Sweet cherry and black berry fruits dominate the aftertaste and finish. This is at least a decade away from being ready for drinking and is very unblanced. 81 points
