1970 Warre Vintage Port
Posted: Sun Jan 20, 2013 5:52 pm
Decant: 24 hours - Mid red colour, pale rim, 40% opaque. Harsh nose, not well knit; a little dirty, like burnt treacle and oranges. Balanced entry, but restrained flavours that gradually grows to show lovely concentrated blood orange. Really attractive palate, mid-weight. Acid backbone shows on the finish, before a long, long finish that is quite concentrated and intense. Lovely port, just a little immature. 89 points
