Other reviews and comments
Dark ruby-purple. Powerful aromas of raisin, blackberry and dark chocolate follow through to a full body, with medium sweetness and a firm, slightly chewy finish. Good fruit. Even nutty.   89
James Suckling, The Wine Spectator
After bottling, vigorous, plenty of 'grip'; two years later still purple, with spicy fruit lurking beneath the brandy: intense, powerful. In 1990 I noted the leanness and acidity - its vibrant nervous system. By the mid 1990s surprising sweetness, attractive fruit, elegance, soft figgy nose, good texture. Most recently I recorded a dry finish but perfect ripeness. **** Lovely now-2015

Mid, evolved, shaded ruby with foxy notes. Lowkey rather harsh nose. Round and lively and vigorous – a jolly good drink for now but vintage ports are expected to have rather more longevity so I will have to mark it down…. But if you’re looking for a vintage port for immediate drinking, this is your wine.   16.5
