2005 Barros Colheita

Post by PhilW »

With a hint of red remaining in the medium red-gold colour, this port is on the turning point where the last of the red fruit flavours and colour evolve into the tawny. In the mouth this is smooth and well-balanced, notes of toffee with good balancing acidity, of medium length, and is delicious.
Very easy to drink, and considering its relatively young age this is a really good colheita, and excellent value.
