Quinta do Passadouro Porto Vintage 2005

ABV: 20%

92/100, Tom Cannavan

“(2005) This sample of the 2004 Port was also on tasting, and Jorge thought it likely that 2004 would be a vintage year for the Quinta. The colour is crimson/black and it has a smoky, schisty, leather, woodsmoke and earth nose with lots of floral lift and a lovely plush depth of fruit. Already smooth, rich and silky on the palate, it has spices and a toffee sweetness, with fresh, grippy fruit and tannins; edgy cherry and layers of black fruit, a fine concentration and firm, elegant tannins.”
