2006 Quinta da Cavadinha Vintage Port, Warre's, Douro, Portugal

Deep red centre with a crimson rim. Charming scents of ripe red fruits, lavender and dusty schist notes. The palate is generous with invigorating plummy, fleshy fruit and subtle cocoa nuances. The bottle age has melded the various elements, balancing the peppery tannins with the full, vinous black fruit flavours and the vibrant freshness. The lingering aftertaste reveals appealing tea-leaf notes.
