TN: 1982 Croft Vintage Port

[Al B.]

Decant: 5 hours - Very pale, orange in colour, very transparent centre. Delicate nose, very floral and sweet, very attractive. Sweet entry with a slight bitterness. Very thick texture. Extrememly elegant although a little one-dimensional. Plenty of fruit and good acidic structure; some development does show late on the palate. Slight heat on swallowing and a very long finish, full of coffee and licorice. Very tasty and elegant. Perfect sipping port. 87 points
