  Quite mature. Dry fruit and nice notes of tobacco, ash and dirt.

  Not much fruit in midpalate here but felt quite ash-y, instead. Perhaps the style doesnt fit me.

  Good LBV port - rich with just enough sweetness.

  Deep red purple colour, pale rim
  Pungently herbal nose , fennel, liquorice, plums,
  Lovely aromatic quality, spicy , liquorice coming through strongly, leather , and dark chocolate, powerful but not overpowering. Maturing nicely. Proper vintage character here. Great quality for the price. Will be even better in 5 years time.
