2001 Quinta do Vale Meao

Post by RonnieRoots »

Tasted March 2007:
All these ports were tasted at ProWein, and I only made short notes.

Quinta de Vale Meao 2001 VP
Very dark, full and complex. A great port with a stunning effort for the vintage. My favourite of the bunch.

Quinta de Vale Meao 2003 VP
Very jammy, almost overripe fruit. Good for sure, but I rather see the fresher fruit of the '01.

Quinta de Vale Meao 2004 VP
Darker than the '03, but not as much fruit. Lots of structure though. I like this better than the '03 but not as much as the '01.
