1996 Warre Cavadinha

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Enjoyable; lots of sweet blackcurrant and some goods tannins. A bit too sweet to be ideal, but a nice Saturday night Port. A day later this had developed a better balance, as well as a lovely dark chocolate and black cherry set of flavours. 88/100. Drunk 03-Apr-21. Decanted 1 hour.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
