1998 Offley Colheita Porto: Bright pale amber, with a wide yellowish rim and a ruby tint. Medium half-dried apricot on the nose. High acidity, sweet, medium+ alcohol, low tannin, medium body. Raisin, half-dried apricot, lesser delicate green apple, caramel and a hint of dark leaves. The half-dried apricot, a hint of nuttiness and dried sweet potatoes were in the long finish. Good balance, good length, great intensity, good complexity. An outstanding wine. 89-90.
