97 Decanter

Shimmering notes of orange peel and lemon juice illuminate over the succulent muscovado sweetness, whilst the generous lime acidity cleans the palate in preparation for the next flood of flavours: caramel and dried fig. Never-ending and remarkable.

"The 1985 Colheita Tawny Port Dalva comes in with 129 grams per liter of residual sugar. This adds a layer or two of depth to the 1994 Colheita reviewed. It is pretty fine. The texture is richer, a bit unctuous, and the finish lingers beautifully. Dribbling waves of caramel and a hint of molasses over the palate, this quickly becomes irresistible. It is nicely balanced, too, easy to drink."
