2015 Carlos Alonso LBV

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled 2020; deep red, gentle perfumed nose with fruit and flowers. Smooth and sweet entry, light bodied and a little disjointed. Gentle fruit, fierce tannins and good acidity. Dried bitter sloe fruit on a long and persistent finish. 84/100. Will it have the balance to evolve? 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.
