1970 Vargellas Vintage Port
Posted: Sun Jun 08, 2014 2:10 pm
Decant: 6 hours - Oporto bottled. Mature brick appearance, lighter and more evolved than the Taylor 1970 shown alongside; 25% opaque. Fresh cut young mushrooms on the nose with quite a lot of spirit showing. Thick texture, concentrated flavours with a lovely sweetness that is balanced with acidity and some dry tannins. Fabulous aftertaste of raspberry and Golden Syrup that continues for a fabulous length. Very fine, with potential to develop further. 90 points
