Upper Port. Deep purple, opaque in the center and with a ruby rim. A complex and ripe bouquet, dominated by black fruits, blackberries, cherries, plums, cassis wrapped in chocolate and anise. Delicate aromas of violet and bergamot notes. In the mouth it is very powerful, dense and with great volume. Silky tannins and well involved in all its fruits. Fresh and almost endless finish. An exceptional vintage, in line with the great classics of Ramos Pinto.
