Barros Colheita Port 1996 750ml

95 Points by Decanter

Burnt caramel aromas with dried cranberry notes lead to lovely bittersweet complexity on the palate. Spice and baked earth, and a fresh butterscotch and malt finish.

Compared to a 20-year-old tawny (which is a blend of wines to give an approximate average), this 20-year old Colheita is completely from this lesser vintage Port year although one that produced some attractive fruity wines. There is a balance between red fruits and wood tannins that have produced a wine that is on the sweeter side for a tawny, and delicious to drink now.
