Luis Seabra 2020 Xisto Cru Tinto
Taylor Fladgate 2009 Vintage Port 375Ml
Inky black with purple rim. A nose of great purity opening on a vigorous note of concentrated black woodland fruit laced with raspberry and plum. Around this dense fruity core, with its attractive vibrancy and minerality, is a fragrant and complex aura of citrus fruit blossom and wild herbal scents of mint and lavender. Supported by a tight warp of thick sinewy tannins, the palate explodes with concentrated ripe black fruit flavour which surges into the long finish before being gripped in a tight tannic embrace.
Taylor Fladgate 20 Year Old Tawny
Cartuxa 2018 Evora Reserva
On the palate, bright flavors of blackberry, wild cherry, Earl Grey tea, and cured meat are accompanied by a rich, tannic mouthfeel. This wine reveals a beautiful balance of fruit, spice, and earth aromas, including black and red berries, black pepper, eucalyptus, Earl Grey tea, and toasted oak. The acidity contributes a pleasant vibrancy, while berry and tea flavors linger extensively on the finish.
