TN: 1980 Fonseca Vintage Port
Posted: Thu Sep 02, 2010 12:13 am
Decant: 4 hours - Served from the bottle, alongside the same port from magnum. Light and very clear in colour, pale pink on the rim. Closed on the nose but does show some sweet redcurrant and sandalwood on the nose. Light but sweet in the mouth, a touch simple in the mid-palate. The aftertaste is dominated by the heat of the wine and some delicate red licorice, but does have good length. 86 points
