Community Tasting Note

Thursday, December 23, 2010 - The word sweet is probably a bit offensive here, since we are talking about a port, but this wine is utterly "sweet" with the connotation of lacking complexity. Some prunes and raisin like tones are saying "hello" too, but the overall impression is a fruit intensive non complex wine, which should rest for many more years in your cellar. I think age is the answer to complexity in this case. Not being an expert on port, I still think there is potential for secondary tones to develop in due course. No rating since I am not sure how to properly evaluate port, but my impression at this stage is around 84-85 p.
