Description
Warre's 1997 Vintage Port
Very deep crimson colour. Rich fresh herbal aromas of gum cistus. Penetrating taste of vibrant blackberry flavours, very spicy with an abundance of tannins and sweetness conveying enormous complexity of favours. Powerful combination of freshness, elegance and a long firm finish.
Critics' Tasting Notes:
"Dark ruby. Subtle and rich aromas of prune, spice, juniper berry and leaves. Full-bodied and medium sweet, with big round tannins. Lasts for minutes on the palate. Still very young. It's lost its youthful toughness, but give it a little more time"
94/100 points, Wine Spectator, March 2008
"Purple with light shades of amber. Purity of grape on the nose with blueberry, blackberry, and cocoa powder. Rich mouthfeel with amazing structured tannins and great balance. Grenadine and luscious, layered dark fruits dominate the mid-palate, rolling into a luscious, sexy, long finish."
93/100 points, Cellartracker.com, November 2022
