1963 Borges Vintage Port
Posted: Sun Jan 20, 2013 5:52 pm
Decant: 21 hours - Deep orange in colour, slightly cloude. Coffee on the nose (which DRT correctly described as waxy) and a bit of burnt match. Mid weight entry, with a nice acidic structure and some very soft tannins giving way to a concentrated orange palate. Orange concentrate on the aftertaste, with a burst of heat and then a delicious gentle and lingering finish. Great balance, this is delicious mature port that is showing slightly better than last week. 89 points
