| | Qty=2Size=750 ml, ST[94+]"Deep medium ruby; darker than the 2004. Much more primary aromas of cassis, black cherry, licorice and mint, less nutty and high-toned than the 2004. Powerful, dense, fresh and elegant, with a deep sweetness, firm underlying structure and a seamless texture. Finishes with explosive, youthful dark fruit flavors, a wave of mellow tannins and terrific energy. After 48 hours in the recorked bottle this retained its verve and showed a captivating chocolate mint flavor. About as close to a young vintage port as I've tasted from outside Portugal. Very impressive." - Steve Tanzer, Vinous (May 2009) |
