1994 Quinta do Vesuvio vintage port

Post by Monique Heinemans. »

Decanted 9 hours before drinking, which appeared to be to short.
A very nice wine with a deep red/purple opaque colour, lots of fruit, some mint, but also a bit harsh on the midpalet. The aftertaste is mediumlong.
On day two it showed much much better, the mouthfeeling is superb, very smooth, almost like velvet. It's dominated by lots of fruit, all kinds of berries, raisins and plums. You almost don't want to swallow. The aftertaste is very long. Lovely!
