W&S Top 100. Now, this one is debatable. Bring it in here. I dig that a current release is almost 20 years old. But man I want to know what this tasted like 5 years ago, 10 years ago! The great aspect of owning a cellar and releasing at the will of ownership, you could “traunch-it”. Right? The leather and soft integration here seemed a bit too far. Certainly not gone. But 5-10 years prior, that is the decade I would have loved to try this. — 6 years ago
Silky yet light mouthfeel, good acid and a bright salinity that made it s perfect match for dorado carpaccio. #portuguesewine is so underrated! Some great treasures that go well with food and are easy on the wallet. — 10 years ago
One of the best memories of my #PortugalDiary - Tasting with Sandra Tavares and Jorge Serôdio Borges Wine & Soul 5G Very Old Port (a Tawny Port) laid down by Jorge’ great-great-grandfather. It was he who started the family’s tradition of serving 100 year old Port on special occasions - 5G / 5Generations - sharing with the #winelover s culture, tradition, knowledge and passion for the Douro and Port Wine. This elixir was aging slowly for over 120 years at Quinta da Manoella - I love #Douro 😜👍😃 a mythic wine — 11 years ago
Lot No. 16 - don’t know exactly what the “lot #s” mean, and the website is under construction. Vintage? But it isn’t a vintage or LBV. Predominant year in the blend? Bottled in 2018. I found this really unusual, in a good way, for a ruby port. It has a dusky, dry tannic character. But silky smooth. Reminds me of tea and raisins, and maybe dried blueberries. Really like this. — 5 years ago

I have always thought, and once again confirmed, that this 92 Reserva is one of the best Douro reds from 90's. Still much alive, showing both secondary and tertiary aromas. The slightly reduced metallic nose disappeared with aeration. — 10 years ago

Been a while but this was really very good - 3rd bottle of this we’ve had this weekend on lockdown. £10 a bottle at M&S. Let it breathe a bit and the rewards are fantastic. You feel it though - 14%. One to savour. — 5 years ago

Probably an early 90’s bottling. Fantastic! — 5 years ago
