2007 Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port
This is what Squid Ink is all about. I was struck by the aromatics of this one. Huge blueberries and cedar that assailed the nose. Hugely massive blueberries and blackberries engulfed the mouth and just at the point of almost being cloying a wave of acidity cut it and balanced it out. Full throttle fruit on the finish rounded out what is, and will be, a stellar 2007 VP. 94-96 points
