January 4, 2008 - Wow....it is hard to find reviews on this port but a $40 vintage 1994 port was worth the roll of the dice. ...and I'm glad I took the risk. Color...blood red, a bit cloudy, and already needing a heavy filter as part of decanting. Highly viscous on the glass walls. Nose..... BIG with loads of red fruit and plums balanced out with the alcohol. Taste is monstrous and highly integrated witht he red fruits pushing past the plumbs. Finish is long and sweet. If you like port but don't want to fork over $80 for a vintage 1994 then this may be your ticket. A MONSTER wine.
