Warre, Vintage Vintage:1997 Still deeply colored

Still deeply colored

quite mineral-driven and precise

The palate is medium-bodied with a slightly viscous texture on the entry

The mouth feel is beautifully refined and even silky with the outstanding complexity

This utterly delicious yet serious effort is highly recommended

Warre, Vintage Vintage:1997 Still deeply coloredThis house makes rather restrained yet rich, flavorful vintage port and a very good tawny called Nimrod. Their vintage ports seem slow to develop, and while they never quite have the voluptuous richness of a Dow, Graham, or Fonseca, they have a unique mineral scented character that gives them their own complexity and style. The 1963 is very, very good and now fully mature.
