NV Quinta Santa Eufêmia Porto 10 Year Old Tawny

Port Blend more

4/28/2024 - wirelesswine wrote: 87 points

This is very different than the 10 year tawnies I've had from the bigger houses. Upon first opening, the wine was a bit harsh, had a tart acidity, felt light in body, and had a short finish. However, with a bit of air, the wine eventually mellowed and tasted more typical. It's still on the drier side overall.

Magnificent Port, still young and fruity, yet fresh, soft tannins, well-balanced sweetness. A great port now, capable of ageing if you have more bottles, this was my first, last and only.

#1 of 11 half bottles I won at auction. Let stand upright 3 days after delivery then tasted without decant. The cork came out in 2 pieces otherwise ok. There remains lot of bright fruit, so I think this could age yet 2-3 decades? There is alcohol on the back palate - not unpleasant but that hint a great port can give. Long finish with subtle classic raisin note. I like it, and 10 more to try over time.

Yes WOW. Ready now and really just a fantastic value. Lacks a bit of the character and complexity of its bigger (and much more expensive) cousins but that is to be expected at this price. Compulsively drinkable.

WS Grand Tour (Walkaround Tasting) (New Orleans): Loved this as a nightcap after a night of tasting too many wines.
Rich and intense plummy fruit. Christmas pudding/fruitcake/spices. Brandied rum raisins.
Just so damn good I will need to find some.

WS Grand Tour (Walkaround Tasting) (New Orleans): My last wine of the tasting and probably bad timing after the Fonseca because this could not possibly compare.
But taken on its own, stewed black Christmas fruits and spices, a touch of licorice and something dirt like that threw me off. I think this will be better with time in bottle.

Ensamblaje de Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Barroca,... Color violáceo oscuro de aspecto denso. La nariz es intensa y opulenta, hay confitura de tomate, notas de mermelada de moras, recuerdos a violetas cremosas, regaliz negro, chocolate, ... En boca el ataque es bueno, pasa untuoso, con un tanino pulido, cierta frescura, bastante estructura, dulzor comedido, suaves amargos y notable persistencia. Muy buen acompañante de un chocolate negro.

Not too much going on here. Passable and drinkable tawny port; a slight excess of VA (nail polish), though with a pleasant enough orange note. Medium finish. There's better ports around this age out there, and you won't have to fork over that much more cash for them, too.

4/21/2024 - DH90 Likes this wine: 91 points

Consumed in a 375 mL bottle. Deep purple color. Rich aromas but this was a bit rough to drink. We did not decant it and this could be part of the problem. While it had the typical minerality on the palate that I love with Fonseca, this was less well balanced than the elegant 1994 which I had very recently. Perhaps this needs more time, greater decantation, or is simply different because of extreme weather conditions in 2003.

Just an excellent and great experience of an older vintage Port. Caramel, toffee, violets, nail polish, raisin and concentrated black fruits still ripe and integrated with perfect acidity. This is rich, well balanced although a little hot but drinking in a really exciting way right now.

Popped and poured from 375ml. This is a dark wine with a medium-red core, everything-staining concentration, and some heavy sediment at the end of the bottle. The nose is grapey, with cooked fruit and some burnt wood aspects. In the mouth, this is rich, loaded, and slightly grainy from the sediment. The finish is likewise rich and deep, with chocolate and fig aspects. Overall, this is a big hitter of a wine that should last forever. I don’t drink enough Vintage Port. 90 points.

I argued with Ah So, who aged better me or Mr. Cork? Cork dropped in defeat drowned Portside.
Cellar stored for 30+ years. My first Madeirized OFF vintage Port. Were it not for the foul medicinal odor, it would be tolerable as a too old Sherry, Madeira, perhaps I will discover a desiccated creature upon emptying?

From 375ml bottle. Lovely balance here, not hot, not overly sweet, rich dark berry fruit, chocolatey, floral, and spicy. Easy to drink and lively. This bottle was PnP and with some air would probably nudge a bit higher.

Small glass after many bottles. Not quite the complexity of the ‘70 Cockburn’s served alongside but your requisite chocolate, fig and stewed fruit notes. Very good. 91-92

4/20/2024 - MAkita Likes this wine: 95 points

A real surprise here--the third bottle of this that I've opened, and by a long shot the best! I had my doubts on a heavily corroded capsule and a cork that instantly slid into the bottle, but to my surprise, this seems to have been kept perfectly!

Beautiful color showing a nice transition between ruby and more of a brick red. Much deeper color than I have seen in previous bottles from Warres in this vintage, and much more reminiscent of the '94--generally a richer vintage for Warres.

This had developed perfectly. Mellow and smooth, with a surprisingly rich finish. Nice light raisiny notes with a deep, molassesy note like Christmas pudding. Not the most complex port out there, but a perfect example of what the right storage (not on my part!) can do to make the absolute most of a nearly 50 year-old wine!

Beautiful dark golden in color. Initial oxidized nose with old wood, grilled pineapple and salted caramel on the nose. Good acidity and complex flavors of caramel, tropical fruits and beautiful acidity. This wine started off chilled, and it showed more oxidation, but as it slowly warmed up, it really blossomed into floral and tropical fruit notes on the nose and the pallet.
