1971 Dalva White Colheita Port
Posted: Sun Jun 08, 2014 2:07 pm
Decant: Not Known - Shown at the Dalva wine bar in Vila Nova de Gaia. Bottled 2012. Very pale in colour, barely light straw. Light on the nose, delicate and fragrant. Light bodied with a delicate entry, very slow to develop on the palate but eventually shows some light brown sugar and icing sugar (JDAW accurately described as Turkish Delight - the kind dipped in icing sugar). A long finish of brown sugar lumps. A very delicate but flavoursome wine. 91 points
