Warres 1994 Vintage Port

Warre's Vintage Port 1994 

Excellent deep colour. Very scented, with a luscious and concentrated blackberry fruit nose, combined with seductive floral hints. Rich and supple fruit flavours on the palate and a backbone of firm tannins. Finishes with superb richness and impressive length.

Critics' Tasting Notes:

"One of the finest Warres I have ever tasted, this opaque purple-colored wine is made in a drier style (a la Dow), yet it is expressive, extremely full-bodied, with superb richness, purity, and well-integrated alcohol and tannin. It possesses a great mid-palate as well as impressive length. Tasters should take note of the wealth of peppery, licorice-scented and flavored raspberry and blackcurrant fruit. Look for it to be ready to drink in 10-12 years, and keep for 30+. This is a profound example of Warre vintage port." Drink 2008-2040

94/100 points, Robert Parker, WINE ADVOCATE, October 1996

"A great surprise for the vintage. Displays fabulous concentration and complex character with it's layers of very sweet fruit, chocolate and cherry aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins. Long finish with plenty of grip. Beautiful wine." *#15 Top 100 Wines of 1997*
