Delaforce, Vintage Port, Porto, Portugal, 2000

“Made in a sweet, open-knit, precocious style, Delaforce’s 2000 reveals a dense ruby/purple color as well as sweet, accessible black cherry/blackberry fruit with hints of smoke, earth, and truffles. This lush, medium to full-bodied, juicy, succulent effort will last for 15+ years.” –  Robert Parker,  90 Points

“Fresh and bright in feel, with a mix of green tea, star fruit, peach and persimmon notes forming the core, backed by light date abd salted caramel details on the finish. Shows lovely tension. A hazelnut husk accent lingers on the finish.” – Wine Spectator, 93 Points

Serve with blue cheese, mature cheddar, nuts, and chocolate desserts.
