TN: 1983 Warre Vintage Port

[Al B.]

Decant: 5½ hours - From a half bottle. A deeply coloured mahogany, transparent but not pale. Cinammon and cedar wood spiced cherries on the nose, rich and sweet and very inviting. One of those bouquets you can smell for hours. Thick and rich in the mouth, spicy and lively with sweet red cherry juice and great depth of flavour. There are still some tannins, but these are soft and subdued. The aftertaste is very big, concentrated cherries and black coffee beans. This is a big wine, not burly but with lots of life ahead of it and beautifully mature. 93 points
