W&S Top 100. Now, this one is debatable. Bring it in here. I dig that a current release is almost 20 years old. But man I want to know what this tasted like 5 years ago, 10 years ago! The great aspect of owning a cellar and releasing at the will of ownership, you could “traunch-it”. Right? The leather and soft integration here seemed a bit too far. Certainly not gone. But 5-10 years prior, that is the decade I would have loved to try this. — 7 years ago
Full bodied dry but not the kind of dry that makes your mouth feel dry. Blackberries, dark fruit. Kind of heavy on the tongue. Could benefit from a decanter — 5 months ago
Just 100 cases made of this single vineyard. Showing great character, depth and fine tannins. — a year ago
Nice deep color with a great body. Excellent bouquet! Dark cherries and plum and a very enjoyable mouth feel. This is a keeper. — 4 years ago
Lot No. 16 - don’t know exactly what the “lot #s” mean, and the website is under construction. Vintage? But it isn’t a vintage or LBV. Predominant year in the blend? Bottled in 2018. I found this really unusual, in a good way, for a ruby port. It has a dusky, dry tannic character. But silky smooth. Reminds me of tea and raisins, and maybe dried blueberries. Really like this. — 6 years ago

Been a while but this was really very good - 3rd bottle of this we’ve had this weekend on lockdown. £10 a bottle at M&S. Let it breathe a bit and the rewards are fantastic. You feel it though - 14%. One to savour. — 6 years ago
