For The Love Of Port

Decant: 9½ hours - Deep red with a black cherry colour. Sweet cherry and sour grapefruit battle on the nose. The palate is stern and imposing; an austere dryness that somehow contains sweet fruit as well as dry tannins. The acidity balances and cleans the palate perfectly. There is lots of fruit on the late palate with a nice fragrance. Soft and gentle, with a harsh edge flashing briefly into view before a big, cherry finish. Very good port, with a touch of VA that became more apparent with more time in the glass. 93 points
