Score 18/20 · Drink 2020-2035, Jancis Robinson MW, Nov 2022
Shaded to ruby. Very rich and broad – much 'smudgier' and 'warmer' than the sharper vintage ports of most houses. Hint of fudge. Tannins almost imperceptible with notes of macerated raisins. Thoroughly warming and approachable. (JR)

Score 17.5/20 · Drink 2015-2035, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, Apr 2016
Tobacco, smoke, black cherry, dark chocolate. More interest and breadth than their 2000. Tannin is already soft enough to drink now. Statuesque. (RH)
