    Notes:As I understand, Porto Morgado is bottled by Forrester & Ca. Tasted in 2003. I was surprised at the dark color of such a reported weak vintage. I was quite impressed with the bottle..reminiscent of a much more expensive Dow's at a fraction of the cost. Aromas of currants, figs and dates and a long, spciy, dry finish. At under $15...a great bottle for more frequent enjoyment.
