Ramos Pinto Vintage Port 1997

Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, PortugalVintage port is always with the finest wines of the Quintas. At Ramos Pinto that means Bom Retiro and Ervamoira. At Ramos the grapes produces a particular style of port without the hard tones of under ripe tannins Rootsy licorice black cherry pepper notes. Delicious mid-palate with intense flavours of rose and black cherry with subtle but light tannins. Very drinkable at the moment Good acidity and balance should keep well through 2010.Tasted: 21 December 2002Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
