Vintage 1988

Port Vintage: A disastrously small vintage that saw most quintas losing 50% of their production, and some as much as 70%. No declarations were made, and only a handful of Single Quinta Vintage Ports were produced. They are best for drinking fairly young, rather than ageing.

Written Notes

Good looking normal size bottle. Colour is brownish, and looking bright and medium. On the nose it is intense, youthful and refined. The taste is harmonious, vivid, round, refined, and sweet, and average in acidity, medium-bodied, with balanced structure and youthful. On the palate it is layered and has chocolate, citrus, toasty and nutty flavours. The finish is long, lingering, flavorful and pure. This wine is a mouthfilling. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 10-15 years.
