Tasted 6/9/2009 at McCarthy & Schiering in Seattle
TFP Vintage Port tasting with special guest Robert Bower
2000 Croft Vintage Port
Deep red approaching garnet in the glass. A little hot in the mouth, but also initially a sweeter impression than the 2007 cask samples. There's a faint minty note in the mouth and very early in the finish, but I can't identify it.

I thought this was showing exceptionally well that night. It was one of my wines of the night.
Ambition driven by passion, rather than money, is as strong an elixir as is Port. http://www.fortheloveofport.com

Re: 2000 Croft Vintage Port
Would it be a crime to pop one of these now? I have a couple of these, but have not pulled the trigger because of the vintage prowess.
