Very tiny crop. Just 650 g per vine on average (they usually harvest 850 g per vine from Malvedos – their lowest yielding, most consistently cropping quinta). Intense and liqueur-like on the nose. Very strong minty note. Dry finish with some tannins still evident. Very pure and clean. 17.5 points

Grapy, unformed, black raspberry liqueur and licorice-infused cassis notes leap from the glass of this opaque purple-colored wine. Sweet, plush, rich, and accessible, it is a forward, lush, concentrated effort that should drink well for two decades. While not one of Graham`s most profound ports, it should evolve rapidly, providing immense crowd appeal. 94 points
