1997 Fonseca Porto Vintage

Community Tasting Note

Does not like this wine:

82 Points

Sunday, January 27, 2019 - Our bottle was not as stellar. First thr cork was completely dried out. After extractiing it, the wine had a decidedly medicinal flavor that did not go away. There was a black cherry note withe high toned spices.
