Community Tasting Note

96 Points

Friday, September 18, 2020 - I have had more than two dozen bottles of this wine ver the years. It is still in its prime, having been there for two decades. There is both bottle variation and variation between bottlings, this being what looked to be an estate bottling rather than the more common Berry Brothers bottling. The colour is now a bright, clean orangey pink with traces of purple still. Plums, strawberries, damson but with strong tertiary notes of undergrowth and wood. Not too sweet and little sign of heat or alcohol. Incredible length, breadth and complexity. Port really doesn’t get much better than this.
