Perfectly ready to enjoy right away, Fonseca Vintage Port 1970 is an exquisite port that's one of the absolute best around. Though it was a little on the fruity side a few years ago, it's now reached an ideal balance of fruit flavors and earthy undertones. The bouquet shows off aromas of cherry, clove, bergamot, mint, and just a bit of tar. These scents are joined by a flavor profile that includes ginger, walnut, and red fruit. The finish is smooth and luxurious, lasting a long time after each sip. This is a great port to open after dinner on a special occasion.Rating: 4.25/5
