Fonseca Guimaraens 1987 Vintage Port (half)
Open 2 days and finally mellowed out, this was intense and quite sharp and in need of a chill and decant.
Nose and palate of ripe cherries, red licorice, milk chocolate, cinnamon sticks and caramel. A little heat, even with a chill, is still noticeable, but the rest of the wine has risen up to bring it back into more balance.

#Oregon #CabernetSauv #Port #wine. Great stylistic approach. Shocked at the quality and resemblance. Great balance on the palate, texture and pleasant lingering flavor. Profile mostly deep morello cherry, clean at the finish separating itself from the rest of the flavors. — 10 years ago

Dark berry in the forefront on both aroma and taste. Nice depth of flavor, balanced acidity with a hint of vanilla, a touch of zippy spice and nearly tannin-free finish. It's a blend with the Tinta Roriz #port grape which brings the dark dried berry richness. There's quite a lot of interesting layers in this young #portuguese red. — 10 years ago

Tasted from #coravin this #taylorfladgate was powerful. The alcohol overwhelmed everything. I was able to get some fun prune and chocolate notes on the incredible length but this will either need some more time or a good long #decant #vintageport #portugal #port #touriganacional #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago

NV - After hours traffic congestion finally home... I need something comforting... to get pleasure back. This #20years old #port certainly does it: very expressive smell with dominant figs but also currants. Velvety taste, rather complex and long aftertaste. Good brand #cockburns — 8 years ago

Marinated mushroom magic. Grapes and raisins, cassis berry, skateboard bushing and candied violets inform an incredibly soft nose. A very blackberry and black currant reduction comes as a surprise bonus with charcoal, black pepper soaked in dry pencil wood and grape skin. This is solid and complex.The finish is endlessly complex vs the common fare. Unexpected from such value port. #port #porto #lbv #dows #portuguesewine #fortified #privateports — 9 years ago

Powerful and young with roasted fruit and spice. Great intensity and concentration. More restrained on the palate than the nose. Youthful and balanced. #dow #vintageport #port #portugal #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago

Med + concentration with a light purple core and a brownish rim. The nose was young with med + intensity and complexity. The fruit was driven by stewed and dried black fruit accompanied by sweet spices, nuts, chocolate, and orange. Tannins were present along with low acid and balanced alcohol. The #port felt young and well concentrated. There was more red fruit along with a floral component on the palate. Great length. #dows #vintageport #portugal #oporto #touriganacional #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
