Colour: intense ruby heading towards garnet Nose: medium intensity, tertiary, developed. Blackberry, blackcurrant jam, black cherry. Strawberry jam? Raisins, dried figs. Cedar, nutmeg, cocoa. Tobacco, leather, dried hay, and maybe earth. High alcohol quite noticeable. Palate: sweet, medium tannins, medium(+) acidity, high alcohol (20,5%), full bodied. Medium(+) intensity, long finish. Blackberry, blackcurrant jam, black cherry. Strawberry jam? Raisins, dried figs. Cedar, nutmeg, cocoa. Tobacco, leather, dried hay, and maybe earth. Some pungency from alcohol, but less than on the nose. Conclusions: very good. Quite smooth on the palate, and drinking very nicely. Can drink now, but suited for further ageing (not sure how long though - maybe just another 5 or 10 years???). LOTS of sediment in the bottle. Seal: natural cork. Notes from half bottle.

Monthly tasting club "The Tasting Club" 2022-1; Vintage Port (@ RvD by PvL): Soft and ripe bouquet with plums and raisins. On the palate chocolate, sweet spices, full bodied and round with good acidity, but also a bit alcoholic in the finish. 90 - 91
