Anything but Port, this includes all wines other than fortified wines (which have their own section) even if they call themselves Port. There is a search facility for this part of the forum.

1999 Casa Ferreirinha Callibriga Douro

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Here ADV posted tasting notes on a number of Ferreira ports and table wines.

Lots of forest and mushrooms on the nose. The palate had a mix of young and fresh fruit and some older notes mixed in. While the tannins are now starting to soften the acidity is still there. While it's in a good spot now, it should easily hold for another 4-5 years no problem. Then again, why wait!
92 Points.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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