Fonseca Late Bottled Vintage Port 1992

Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, PortugalThe '92 Fonseca was bottled in 1997 by one of the legends of Oporto, winemaker Bruce Guimaraens. Another inky, black wine right to the rim. This is serious port that it is a rich, delicious mouthful. On the palate it is silky with a spicy, clove aftertaste. Its dry finish particularly appeals, although it is showing some age now and should be drunk soon. Tasted: 01 March 1995Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
