1994 Fonseca Vintage Port

 

We are absolutely delighted to have secured another parcel of the fabulous 100 point 1994 Fonseca - again imported straight from the cellars in Oporto. 'Hold on to your hat. This is the best Fonseca since 1977, and it's probably even better than that classic vintage--more like the breathtaking 1948. Mind-blowing' James Suckling The 1994 is the perfect Port drinker's vintage; mature yet still full of life… you can happily drink them this Christmas, or a thirty years from now.  The wine has been stored in perfect conditions since 1994 - the provenance is therefore impeccable and the bottles are in immaculate condition.

I rank the 1994 Fonseca in the top three Ports I have ever tasted - alongside 1948 Taylor's and 1963 Dow's.  It really is a wine that needs to be tasted to be believed. Don't miss this opportunity to secure some for your collection! 1994 Fonseca Vintage Port @ £580 per 6 Ex Cellars Oporto 2021 Hold on to your hat. This is the best Fonseca since 1977, and it's probably even better than that classic vintage--more like the breathtaking 1948. Mind-blowing, with masses of color, aroma and fruit flavor. Smells like fermenting berries, boasting loads of crushed grape, violet and berry character. Big, full-bodied and very sweet, with tons of tannins and a sweet finish. Tannic and huge, it's a long-term, great Port. Best after 2012. 8,000 cases made.  100pt, James Suckling
