December 15, 2020 - I'm biased as I had a great experience buying this port wine. But many years after the purchase it's terrific! Slight bricking (in 2020), nose of cassis and almonds (who wouldn't love that?), non-cloying texture on the palette, cherries at the back end. Really does everything that a vintage port should do.

February 6, 2014 - Very light color. Lacking body and flavor interest. I don't think this was ever that good but it is clearly in decline. (75)

October 23, 2013 - Australian Outback Tasting (Miami, FL): Accompanying Humboldt Fog and Marieke Gouda, this tawny had a ever so gentle nose of cedar, spices, and dates. Palate had great counterbalance between sweetness and acidity. Finish short to medium with dried spices. Great pairing with the cheeses and Aussie reds.

September 3, 2011 - Light pale ruby to the eye
Cherry, light fruit, woodsy cedar box, tea, incense
This was a fantastic bottle of port that we shared with friends tonight
Cork was in bad shape, I think due to storage conditions in period before I acquired it, but the itself was in perfect condition
