1997 Warre

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Tasted at the Confraria dinner. Really perfumed, lovely on the nose. Less lovely on the palate, lacking some balance. Lots of tannin but with fruit that is light and a little watery, creating a slightly flabby impression. A great aftertaste. 89/100. 22-Jun-17. Decanted 12 hours.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
