Quinta do Vesuvio Port 1999 (6 x 75cl)

Intense purple colour, bursting with concentrated scents of violets, black cherry and blackcurrant fruit. On the palate monumental fruit, with superb ripe flavours and hints of bittersweet chocolate balanced by a powerful backbone of fine tannin.

Vesuvio is unique amongst Port producers in only making Vintage Port, and a mere 2000 cases of the 1999 was be bottled for release. This represents only 8% of the Quinta’s production in 1999.

The 1999 offers plenty of the Quinta de Vesuvio house style of supremely aromatic, full bodied ports. This 1999 vintage will continue to improve.
