Vinha Velha Vintage Port 2004 Taylor

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (94)

The 2004 Vinha Velha has a potent incense and lavender-scented bouquet that is heady and somehow Oriental. It is well-defined with real power. The palate is medium-bodied with fig jam and dates on the entry that segue into boysenberry and cassis on the mid-palate and a surprisingly open finish that suggests it is evolving a little quicker than I imagined two years ago. Still, this is a superlative Vinha Velha.

Winespectator (92)

Offers powerful aromas of crushed raspberry and blackberry. Concentrated, full-bodied and very chewy, with lots of beautiful fruit and a long, caressing finish. Best after 2015. 300 cases made. –JS
