| Review: | What more could one want in a young vintage Port? It has great elegance and great power. Brilliant deep ruby-purple, with boysenberry and licorice aromas, full-bodied, very fleshy, with a firm backbone of tannins. |

| Notes: | I opened one in 1987-88, can't remember which, and it was an absolute fruit bomb..reminded me of grape jelly it was so grapey! It really got me hooked on port. However, opened another bottle in 2000 and it seemed to be going through a "dumb" stage...all alcohol and no fruit. I hope this is just the maturation process and that the fruitiness will return in later years cause I have about 10 more bottles. |

| Notes: | I tend to agree. This is one of my favorites. Still have most of my second case left. Great wine to introduce new comers to port. |

| Notes: | A huge amount of pepper plus jam plus tannins. Very long and good alcohol content. Could have aged longer, but a great drink right now. Very, very enjoyable. |
