1993 Chateau Reynella Vintage Port

"Port is not for the very young, the vain and the active. It isthe comfort of age and the companion of the scholar and thephilosopher. The heavy port drinker must be prepared to makesome sacrifice of personal beauty and agility. Its martyrs areusually well content with the bargain and in consolation it maybe remarked that a red nose never lost a friend worthholding...." Evelyn Waugh. Wine in War and Peace.This is an outstanding young Vintage Port - and is for the youngwho wish to acquire wisdom in old age. It is a wine to cellarand forget - you could easily hold this wine for 20 years. Opaque deep crimson mauve colour, and already crusted. The noseis magnificent now, and will be pure bliss in your old age - andby then you should be seriously wealthy, so who will care aboutyour red nose! Marzipan, blackberries and liquorice flavours areintegrated with very fine brandy spirit, providing the port withsuperb structure and youthful vitality. Very long fine grainedtannin structure. This is a mouthfilling Vintage Port with longblackberry and liquorice aftertaste. Outstanding.\Z
