ColourStill rather dark ruby in colour with a rather yellow edge.Number of tastings14
BouquetDark berry such as blackberry, blue berry and mulberry in the nose but also a hint of cork.Score range
TasteMedium body. Drinkable but the taste and nose of corked make it quite difficult to enjoy. Still some tannin but balanced port with a rather nice finish despite the cork.Average score
