1997 Burmester Vintage Port
Posted: Thu Apr 01, 2010 2:45 am
Decanted 6 hours. Served at approx 10 C. Dark colour with slightly transparent edges. After 20 min in the glass, smell of sweet dark berries and overripe plums.
Taste of dark berries/cherries and plumjam. The alcohol is well integrated, mouthfeel is gentle and soft with smooth tannins.
In my view this wine is halfway in life, with a youthful attitude and a good portion of adult charme.
I expect this wine will further develop it's qualities the nex 5-10 years. 92 pts.
I bought a case of this wine a couple of weeks ago, and now I just ordered another...
