TN: 1991 Casa Ferreirinha Barca Velha Douro

Post by Andy Velebil »

Popped and poured over about one hour. Still very acidity driven up front. Delicate dried red fruit, some pencil lead, dried leather, and fully resolved tannins. A moderately long finish full of dried fruit and forest notes. Consistent with the other bottles of this I've had, in that it's drinking well but a tad past it's best days. I'd recommend drinking these sometime in the next couple years for best results.
