2004 Quevedo Colheita (bottled 2021)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Quevedo 2004 Colheita, bottled in 9cl in 2021 for the 2021 advent calendar. Even in this small format, 18 months in bottle has allowed this wine to throw a sludgy deposit. Similar nose to the 2002 but much smoother and more rounded on the palate. Perhaps holding less depth and vigour, but certainly a much more enjoyable wine to drink today than the 2002 Colheita. This is fruity, balanced and rather nice.  88/100. Tasted 21-Mar-23. Decanted 1 hour.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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