Portugal

The 2013 is another excellent LBV from Taylors. Plummy jam and hints of blackcurrant on the nose, with a rich palate of dark cherry and stewed fruits.

A unique mineral-scented character that is typical to Warre's that gives them their own complexity and style. The 1983 is richly perfumed and fragrant, a fine example of the ports from this vintage.

Typically for Warre, this is a big, powerful wine, packed with lots of deep concentrated fruit, wrapped in a rich, rounded tannic structure. Ready to drink now but will keep.

This is a delicious, fresh, sweet white Port with notes of caramel, honey and nuts from a top producer from the Rio Torto valley.

From the excellent Krohn Stable, this is a very high quality Reserva Port with spicy, plummy, roasted fruits.The Port is aged for 2 years in 547 litre oak barrels (the traditional 'pipe') and large vats. Bottled unfiltered.

Retaining a deep and youthful colour, the nose has intense black fruit characters, with notes of sweet spices, liquorice and vanilla. The palate has structure and concentration, with rich, ripe plum and cherry flavours, more spice and firm tannins. It is drinking well now, but still has many years ahead.

Mature and versatile with a deep red colour and a concentration of fresh, plummy fruit aromas plus hints of spice. The palate has plenty of lively cherry and curranty black fruit - rich and full with a soft finish.

The Krohn house style is one of elegance and refinement, as ever this LBV is excellent value. Roasted red fruits and burnt sugar on nose and palate.

Mature and versatile with a deep red colour and a concentration of fresh, plummy fruit aromas plus hints of spice. The palate has plenty of lively cherry and curranty black fruit - rich and full with a soft finish.
