1985 Martinez

Post by winesecretary »

Five hour decant. Heavy sediment.

A gentle mid red.

Nose redolent of thyme, orange trees, and dusty cherry jujubes.

Sweet entry with some red fruit but lots of well- soaked prune and licorice on the mid palate and finish. A nice clove- studded orange and mace note, late.

A particularly delicious bottle of a fully mature port.
