Estimate
A hard, take-no-prisoners Port, extremely powerful and still closed when last tasted. Deep inky color, with concentrated blackberry and raisin aromas, full-bodied, with massive raisin flavors, a superb backbone and a very long finish.
The nose offers kirsch, sloes and Christmas cake. With time, there are subtle notes of dried fig and dates beginning to emerge and add to the complexity. The palate is medium-bodied and beautifully balanced on the supple, rounded entry.
...Thick, dry and clarety. Rather fine and serious..
...still very deep; wonderfully relaxed, harmonious, forthcoming bouquet; excellent flavour and flesh. A lovely wine.
