Decant: 1 hour - Supplied by Quinta do Bucheiro, sold in the UK through Russell Mellor as "College Ruby"; bought as the College Port of Christ Church, Oxford.
Ruby colour, slight purple on the rim. Light and gently spicy nose, dominated by tart rhubarb. Light bodied entry, full of acidity, soft but sour bramble fruit and gentle, powdery tannins. Nice complexity on the palate, if rather light. Very tasty blackcurrant dominated finish of tremendous length. Overall, this is a light bodied and very youthful port, but is eminently drinkable - probably perfect College Port! I don't think I could drink more than a glass in one evening though, it really is acidic. 84 points
