Rose in color. A LOT of heat on the nose. Tastes of caramel, anise, and clove. The finish is all chocolate. The heat is a bit distracting but overall a nice port.

Robert,
This is a colheita that I've always enjoyed and a look at my previous scores puts it about the same as yours.

Shhhh! I gifted one 2 years ago to Stewart as it is his birth year. I have enjoyed the '71 Noval's but prefer the 1974.
