1955 Ferreira Vintage Port

Post by Tom D. »

Remarkably youthful medium cherry-garnet color. Berry, licorice and spice, not tremendously complex or structured, but overall very clean and impeccably balanced. A really fine showing, drinking much younger than 1955. Neck fill, clean cork, EWR import. 94 pts

Thanks David. I really did enjoy this one, the balance was superb. It was probably the most enjoyable '55 I've tasted, other than a bottle of Taylor that showed unbelievably well a couple years ago. I hope I'm able to track down a couple more bottles.
