NV Ferreira Dona Antonia Reserve Port

[Frederick Blais]

Well... I had to go on plan B too The Imperial Tawny was not on list of the 2 SAQ I visited this week-end. So I pick the Ferreira Dona Antonia Reserve as it is begginning to be late on this one. It is a blend of Port ranging from 4 to 9 years.

Alcohol that was on the nose and on the palate on the first night had disapeared on the second day. Which leaves us with a nice creamy almonds dominated nose with some dried fruits and toffey notes. The palate is smooth, again creamy texture, sweet, with dried figs and nutty flavour. Short on the finale as many of these products are, but on the second day the balance is there so it is a Port that is enjoyable now. 14/20
