Tasting Notes

James Suckling critic

Vintage Port (book, Suckling, 1990) source
1989 tasting note year

A supreme, rich Port that beckons to be drunk.  Medium garnet-ruby, with a light cassis and tomato nose, medium- to light-bodied, with very delicate cherry flavors and a silky mouth-feel on the finish.
