an exotic spice note

A seductive style

it remained broody and introspective on the nose

It is a Lafite-Rothschild that may spring a few surprises down the line

Rich and lush but less obviously fruit-driven than usual in this vintage

2016 | Warre's Vintage Port | Portugal Chateau Belregard-Figeac an exotic spice noteGorgeous, with warm plum reduction and gently steeped raspberry, blackberry and boysenberry fruit flavors forming the core, all inlaid with warm ganache and smoldering tobacco accents. Very plush in feel, but has no lack of energy, as everything sails beautifully through the long finish. A late echo of anise completes the seduction. 98 Pts Wine Spectator
