For The Love Of Port

Decanted 5 hours. There is a lot of tannins on this young Douro wine. Thankfully they are somewhat tempered by lots of creosote, black fruit, graphite, a smattering of eucalyptus, and plenty of acidity. I took a small taste early on and a long decant has really helped, as it wasn't showing much upon opening, and is far better now. I've never had a wine from this producer so I don't have a reference as to how well it may age. But I'm inclined to say it should do well over the next 8-10 years, if not longer. A pretty darn good $25 bottle of Douro wine.
