Tasted at the Symington Family Estates presentation of their 2015 ports.
Ex-cellars. Mature brick-red colour; 50% opaque. Sweet mature and spiced fruit on the Christmas cake nose. This is just so easy to sniff and delivers a real "Wow". Balanced entry, sweet and spiced with raisins and cloves combined with a lovely texture. Air brings out the complexity and releases even more flavours. Delicious and spicy finish with aniseed and tobacco with a great length. Another superb port. 95/100. Drunk 18-May-17. Decanted 2 hours.
