NV Quinta da Devesa White 40YO (bottled 2019)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Drunk at the Producer's Dinner at the Boot & Flogger the night before the BFT. Brought by Felipe Marinho of Quinta da Devesa.

Devesa 40yo White b2019. Dried mango nose. Thick, sweet marmalade on the nose. Powerful bitters on the edge of the tongue which fade to Seville Orange oil. Very long finish. A fabulous and intense White Port. 96/100. Tasted 19-Apr-23. Pop 'n' pour.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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