1995 Freitas LBV Port

[Steven Kooij]

An epic Port…is the worst possible way. Yes, this wine has the honour of receiving the lowest rating I’ve ever given to a wine. The nose alone was enough to induce mild headaches (and I AM being serious here), and might even have induced minor brain damage, as we actually tasted it as well. Glycerol-like body, a burning sweetness, this is BAD. My only comment on the finish: offensive. To write more about it would be giving it too much credit: 65 points.
