For The Love Of Port

Decant: 24 hours - Berry Brothers & Rudd bottling. Deep rusty red, deepest of the 5 proper Ports being tasted on the night, but clearly showing its age. A warm, sweet nose that carried the smell of of raspberry juice. Sweet in the mouth, thin on entry but with plenty of flavour. Still tannic and developing meaty, redcurrant flavours with a fabulous complexity. Long length, with layers of flavour. Best wine of the night in my opinion, and by quite a way. This was a much better showing that the '63 Sandeman drunk at the November 2005 offline. Bottles like this one still have a long life ahead of them. 96 points
