About

Rating:

99

"A beautifully balanced, rich wine, this has great tannins, a dense, firm texture and luscious blackberry fruits. It shows the structure of the vintage while also bringing a fresher element. Jammy but never cloying, this is an impressive wine for the long term. Drink from 2029."

Product Description:

"Maynard's Vintage Port is made from selected grapes of the Torto Valley in the heart of the Douro region, the port was foot trodden in granite 'lagares'. The blend resulted in creamy, thick tannins, complex and well-structured Vintage Port, with blackberry aroma and ripe red fruit flavour.

As the wine ages it softens and slowly sheds its deep dark colour, gaining in structure and complexity. As Vintage Port throws a natural "crust or sediment in the bottle, it should be stood upright for 24 hours and decanted carefully before serving. Superb colour, full body and very fine aroma (mint) and flavour." - Winery
