2015 Quinta do Crasto LBV

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Decanted at 18.00 the prior day and drunk at 19.20. A dark, deep red with no rim. Blackcurrant nose, fragrant and attractive. Fruit on the palate, a lovely dark cherry yet with gentle tannins holding the wine in balance giving a lovely palate. Black cherry finish. The wine continues to show very well! 90/100. Drunk 17-Jan-23. Decanted 1 day.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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