Media Reviews

Mark Squires

The 2020 Vintage Port Vinhas Velhas is a commemorative year of the 350th anniversary of Warre`s. It is a field blend aged for 18 months in old oak vats. It comes in with 113 grams of residual sugar. Aromatic and tight, this is a typically elegant Warre`s, a bottling that always seems to show mid-palate finesse. With a couple of hours of decanting, it showed more nuanced fruit too, but this initially finished with a little harshness. The alcohol is currently beaten down by the fruit, but I`d like to see it develop a bit as it holds its balance. It`s fair to note, as Charles Symington did, that it was only in bottle a few weeks. A decanted version showed far better, a very good and promising sign. This has upside potential in the cellar, but there are some things to prove given the price range. There were just 2,400 bottles produced. 93 points
