2 masked vintage ports

1997 Hardy’s vintage port

Developed dark ruby colour, but awash with cocoa, chocolate, raisin, liquorice. Some almond too, tempting some people into the Portuguese camp. Bit it looked pretty traditional South Australian to me, brandy spirit completing the picture. Top up my glass please!

Drink now – 2025, Score 93

two vp's

1990 quinta do Vesuvio

Grubby rubber gloves. Sweet but supple palate. But the wine has seen better days.

Drink.now. Score <80
