For The Love Of Port

Decant: ½ hour - UK bottled by Newcastle Breweries. Deep red/orange in colour, with a light orange rim; 25% opaque. Lovely on the nose, with a gentle toffee apple and fragrant Cape Gooseberry - a sharper focus than the other full bottle Ck55 on show tonight. Sweet and balanced on entry with sweet - perhaps over sweet - fruit all over the palate. An interesting slight wood-ash undertone giving a very interesting complexity. Toffee and red licorice on the aftertaste and then a long and lingering sticky finish that still shows a hint of the tannins. Very fine port. 90 points
