1985 Fonseca Vintage Port
Posted: Sun Jan 20, 2013 5:52 pm
Decant: 20 hours - Deep red, youthful and opaque. Stunning nose, full of sweet red jelly beans, very pronounced with just a hint of menthol. Full and rich on the palate; sweet, soft and concentrated with gentle tannins that give a lovely black pepperiness. Huge palate presence, with a soft and velvety texture. Dark chocolate dominates the finish, which is massive and long lasting. This is a fabulous bottle of a stunning port - absolutely amazing. 94 points
