Vinification

Occasional wine note

This is a vintage port for your cellar. It is delicious now, but this needs another decade or more in the bottle to truly demonstrate it's magnificence. It features a harmonious blend of rich dark fruit, chocolate, and velvety tannins. This is one that you will not forget.

What experts say about this wine

Wine Spectator

Lush and inviting in feel, with a beautifully creamy texture that lets plum sauce, blueberry reduction and raspberry pâte de fruit flavors glide along effortlessly. Notes of violet, anise and black tea are beguiling in the background before melding seamlessly on the finish. This shimmers with fruit, balanced by depth and spine. Best from 2035 through 2055.

Falstaff

Deep dark ruby with an opaque core, purple reflections and delicate rim brightening. Fine forest berry fruit, ripe cherry, a hint of figs, a mineral underpinned bouquet, delicate fresh orange zest. Juicy, fresh and elegant, ripe cherry, fine tannins, pleasant sweetness on the finish, delicate nougat touch and dried plums in the aftertaste. Would be good to drink already today thanks to its great balance, safe maturity, certain ageing potential.
