Experts’ opinions

Clive Coates
"Full colour. Impressive nose. Rich, full concentrated and classy. Full body. Very good ripe tannins. Excellent grip. Splendid fruit. This is the complete port, with a depth and strength most 2000 lack. Lovely long, impressively complex finish. Very fine indeed. From 2018."
Robert Parker
"Dense ruby/purple-colored, with an exotic, exuberant perfume of black fruits, flowers, incense, and licorice, this unctuously-textured, full-bodied port is one of the most concentrated of the vintage. Sweet, expansive, and succulent, this large-scaled, but remarkably well-balanced effort is surprisingly forward and accessible (by Fonseca’s standards). Anticipated maturity : 2006-2025."
Stephen Tanzer
"Saturated medium-deep ruby. Exotic aromas of black fruit liqueur, road tar, smoked meat and hot stones ; this reminded me of a great ripe-year Hermitage. Hugely rich and dense, with compelling sweetness and pliancy but also sound framing acidity. Extremely youthful and very long on the aftertaste. Finishes with suave but strong tannins and excellent grip and thrust. Like the best examples of the vintage, this won’t injure your palate if you broach a bottle today, but it’s structured for extended aging."
