Port Wine

jamessuckling.com, 100 points: OMG. This is really the most amazing young Taylor's I have ever tasted. Full-bodied and lightly sweet with super power and intensity. So racy and focused. Yet this has such muscle and intensity. Needs at least eight years...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: The 1982 Colheita Tawny Port was bottled with 155 grams per liter of residual sugar and a long cork in 2016. It comes in at 21.6% alcohol. Moderate in depth, this is long on charm. It has a very bright, fresh start...

Wine Spectator, 98 points: This is distinctive, with youthfully rambunctious dark currant, fig and blackberry fruit paste flavors liberally spiked with bramble, Turkish coffee and ganache notes. As the fruit pumps through the finish, a tarry...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: Very complex with dried flowers and roses. Full-bodied, very layered and tightly wound. Chewy and powerful. Firm and off-dry. Needs five or six years to soften. Beauty. Try in 2024.

Decanter, 94 points: Vivid damsons and blackcurrants are allied with liniment and spice to give a luxuriously sweet, soft mouthfeel. The rich chocolate notes are kept in check by ripe, enveloping tannins, beautifully integrated wood and fresh...

Decanter, 98 points: A site-specific wine from three small plots of northfacing terraced vineyard on the Malvedos estate: wonderfully aromatic (high percentage of Touriga Nacional) with a classic floral character; soft, rich and opulent with...

Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: Cellar Selection. The dark, almost black color and the wonderful violet aromas set the scene for this complex, dense and textured wine. It has a touch of spice, along with the rich plum and dark berry fruits. While it is...

Vinous, 96 points: The 2013 Vintage Port from Quinta do Noval is a "dangerous" fortified since every sip encourages another. Replete with blueberry, blackberry, allspice and dates on the nose, this is quite opulent and seductive. After 30...
