16^½/20

Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, PortugalAnother year in bottle has only helped this LBV shine with its peppery, minty, black tea, prune, blackberry, chocolate, rancio, nutty aromas. There is a full, ripe, round, sweet but juicy palate with light tannins and plenty of black liquorice, orange peel, dried fig, dried cherry, pepper, walnut, smoky, tobacco flavours. Excellent intensity for LBV.Tasted: 18 October 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
