Description
Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port 19942owc
Bottle (12)
“Terrific aromas of berries and violets, with a hint of mint. Full-bodied and lightly sweet, with fine, silky tannins that build on the palate and caress the tongue. Outstanding concentration and harmony. Greatest Vesúvio this century.” (96 pts. James Suckling, Wine Spectator, April 1997)
“This impressive wine, with an opaque ruby/purple color, reveals excellent richness, layers of flavor, well-integrated alcohol and tannin, moderate sweetness, and a long, heady finish. Pure and impressively built, it should drink well in 5–7 years.” (92 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Oct. 1996)
“75% opacity, gaining transparency closer to the rim. Excellent exotic bouquet with lavender, tobacco, potpourri, tapenade and tar. One of the most evocative aromatic silhouettes of nearly two dozen Ports. Fresh, sweet entry turns off-dry upon swallowing. It is supple and firm with beautiful structural components, yet impeccably crafted for drinking right now, as well as two to three dozen years from now when it will likely be at its best. Cherry and boysenberry flavors, smooth as silk and stylish "come hither" aftertaste.” (93+ pts. Roy Hersh, For the Love of Port, Oct. 2014)
Estimate: $475 - $600.
