Late Bloomer

Herman Story

Late Bloomer Grenache

Deep purple, ink color. Aromas of baking spices (clove and allspice), blackberry jam and cola. The 15.6% Alcohol / Vol took a bit to dissipate. Incredible flavors of blackberry, dark chocolate cherry cordial and baking spice finish. Killer wine.

Taylor Fladgate is arguably the benchmark for LBV which they basically pioneered.

Notes of ripe blackberries, plum, cedar, chocolate, and spice. Warm and supple with balancing acidity. Great value.

Awesome, I do confess a major sweet spot for LBV Porto, one cannot drink 1977 Fonseca once a week (or at least THIS one)!! Cheers!

I'd try to drink a '77 Porto once per week, but I'll run out...in about one week 😂
Not much depth on that legendary vintage here

@Severn G, early in my wine collecting (NYC, early to mid-80s), I was lucky enough to purchase a few 1970s and then case lots of 1977 Fonseca, Taylor,, Grahams (inconsistent, some outstanding and some average), and half-cases of Dow’s and Warre’s. I probably have a half-case of Fonseca and Taylor left, the others less, but damn, the 1977s remain amazing. BUT, I figured you had multiples of those wines in your cellar!! 🤷🤷
