Critics Ratings
'Classic, superbly dry, vibrantly spicy and rich 1998 'port' calls on Touriga Naçional and equal Tintas Barocca and Roriz, Touriga Franca, Souzão and Cornifesto for complexity. Bold and nutty, it's structured from 30 months in 1,300L vats. Good for a further half-decade. Last tasted was 1996 (4.5 stars, 90 pts).' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2021, 5* (95 points)
