2018 Cadao

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

From Quinta do Cadão, produced by Mateus & Sequeira Vinhos. 5,000 bottles. Bright red colour. Opaque. Fragrant nose, flowers and black fruit. Smooth texture, nice fresh red fruit and gentle tannins. Nice gentle but green grip on the fruit of the aftertaste. Light and gentle. Will age with elegance and refinement based on the fresh acidity. 86/100. Tasted 09-Jun-22.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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