PORTWEIN - SHOP - Qta. do Vesuvio Vintage Port 1996 283

A new feature introduced to the 1996 vintage was the employment of two separate teams of pickers and treaders. This meant that a minimum of 25 people constantly worked the lagares throughout the day. In the evenings, after picking, as many as forty people were on hand to ‘cut’ and tread the grapes. This experience proved very positive as the additional manpower in the lagares allowed for even better colour extraction and contributed to the production of simply excellent wines.

Our Vintage Port Expert's Recommendation

This young wine should be allowed to age in its own bottle for at least 15 to 20 years from the time it is bottled to achieve its optimum maturity. For those who prefer to drink their Vintage Port young, 4 to 5 years are sufficient.

Reviews

James Suckling, Wine Spectator, February 1999
90 Points

“Impressive. Dark purple in colour, with lots of pretty plum, floral and berry aromas. Full-bodied, with very racy tannins and a long, long fruity finish.
