Written Notes

Ferreira, Offley and Sandeman – all famous names and all producers which have been involved in making ports since back in the 1700’s and early 1800’s. All are now part of the Sogrape empire. This effort might sit neatly between the Offley and Sandeman in style. Purple/black colour. There is complexity here. Seamless with fine balance and ideally suited to the more elegant style of the 2016 vintage. Lingers beautifully with those pristine fruit flavours to the fore. Good spirit and fine tannins, all well balanced. Lots to love here. 96.
