2000 Fonseca Vintage Port
Posted: Sat Jan 14, 2012 5:12 pm
Decant: Not Known - Still opaque but showing no baby-port magenta. Raspberry creme brulee on the nose, with some attractive baked fruit tones. Sweet fruit on entry and showing good poise; woody tannins slowly show through but never dominate. Big fruit dominated palate. A tingling aftertaste and a big tannic chocolate finish that is very sticky and very long. Clearly closing down. 89 points
