Wine Spectator
I have always been a fan of this very fine and well-made Port. Truly balanced in character, with focused flowers, spice and cherry. Full-bodied, with a sweet palate and a fine texture. (JS)

Wine Advocate
With a pale colour, this wine has developed into mainly earthy, meaty, gamey aromas with discernable notes of loam, underbrush and a touch of caramel over the sultana and Chinese dried plum fruit. After a few minutes, appealing scents of orange peel and dark chocolate begin to emerge. Crisp, rich, warm and spicy on the palate, with a remaining low to medium level of silky tannins. Long finish.

Magnum. Stunning, enchanting and absolutely pure. Pale and delicate in colour, yet still so complete and persistent. Fufills every expectation. And apparently indestructible! 20/20 points (RH)
