September 22, 2019 - 2019 FTLOP Harvest Tour; 9/19/2019-9/28/2019 (Portugal): Clear, amber-brown in color. Decanted for about 1 hour. Cocoa powder and a touch of pomegranate on the nose. Rich mouthfeel with chocolate and Christmas spice on the palate. Long finish with good sweetness and acidity.

December 11, 2012 - Strong alcohol on the first sip, but it mellowed out very well after 20 minutes and was fantastic if you like old vintage ports

September 21, 2012 - Light to medium brownish red. The palate has some sweet plums and cherries, but with some alcohol heat as well. The wine is completely one-dimensional. It's drinkable and maybe a little interesting from an oddity standpoint as it's from a little seen producer, but there's nothing here to seek out.
