TN: 1988 Fonseca Guimaraens Vintage Port

[Al B.]

Decant: 24 hours - Deep red in colour. Lovely sweet brambles on the nose, really delicious. Terrific body, full and flavoursome impact that is very impressive. Plenty of fruit in the midpalate and delicious complexity. Tannins are gentle but firm. Very big in the mouth. Big aftertaste, slightly hot but full of dry blackcurrant skins. Big and long finish. Very impressive wine, enjoying being of age and drinking extremely well. Really nice port, which will hold in the cellar for a long time to come. 93 points
