"93 Points - Richard Mayson, Decanter.com
One of those ‘nearly there’ Port vintages, with hopes of a good growing season dashed by last-minute rain still restrained on the nose, with liquorice-like richness beneath; opulent, broad and sweet with fresh berry fruit and a touch of dark chocolate and spicy, peppery tannins on the finish. Drinking Window: 2015 - 2030"
In the early 1950’s, the rising demand for Vintage ports led Fonseca Guimaraens to create a second vintage port under the ‘Guimaraens’ label. Blended from slightly less powerful components, Guimaraens Vintage Ports are made in years when the wines are more supple and early maturing and are drawn from the produce of the same three estates. They differ only in that they are more approachable, ready to drink earlier and for their quality and rarity offer exceptional value.
