MB [****] (5/2002): Opening price to the trade GBP40 per case FOB or GBP43 in bond, London, 25 case minimum order. Discounts thereafter. Very deep, hard, tea-left in 1979. Over 20 notes since showing a slow but gradual development. Fragrant, tea-like bouquet evolving; rich spicy, lovely by the end of the 1980s. Consistenly good through the 1990s including a well-nigh perfect bottle at a Symington tasting in 1994: typical Warre elegance, lissom and lovely. Then magnificent magnums, magnanimously donated by the Symingtons, at the Wine Trades' Benevolent Banquet in 1996. Drinking well at the Garrick in 1999. Most recently, at home. Now fully mature-looking; somewhat unknit; a hot dry finish. I preferred it after a day or two in the decanter but overall a bit disappointing.
FTLOP 92 (7/2008): I opened this bottle to share in celebrating FTLOP's 3rd anniversary with Stewart, Jody and Dorene but knew that Pedro Branco (owner of Quinta do Portal) would be having dinner at my place that night along with his US importer. A fine wine to end the evening with, although due to it being a Mag, we did not finish it. I gave Stewart some to take home and kept enough so that I had another impression the following day. Medium cranberry in color with a lighter ruby edge. By the time we had commenced consumption, the Warre's had sat in decanter for 11.5 hours. The nose evolved nicely over that time frame and I detected scents of mint, spirit and a touch of stalkiness. Taylor mentioned raspberries and yep, she was right on the money. Medium-bodied with a fine roasted coffee bean flavor along with raisins and raspberries and a gentle backdrop of heat which was rather mild but noticeable. It was showing its age but it was by no means over the hill, just a mature fun VP at this stage with life left ahead. The tannins were fully resolved and the aftertaste lingered nicely. The following day, the texture had really settled down and it was silky smooth and really delightful but otherwise, this VP was pretty much unchanged. Drink now through 2015 for maximum pleasure. Shockingly, Stewart FINALLY nailed a VP with his first guess and I almost fell off my chair, boldly stating, It is a 1977. I bought this in 1993 at Total Beverage in Chantilly, VA for the insane price (they had it mis-marked) of $29 for the mag. That is what I paid when I bought a several cases of the 750s there (per bottle). |

MB [****] (9/1997): Eleven notes. The usual classic appearance in 1985: opaque centre and violet rim. Very deep plummy purple by autumn 1986. In 1990 powerful yet restrained, almost chewable; sweet without being cloying, lovely flavour and textutre, a bit lean but with characteristic Warre elegance and firm dry tannic finish. Texture and harmony noted at the Dow, Graham, Warre tasting in 1994 and its smooth 'elegance' and flesh in 1996. Now medium-deep, mature, drinking well. An attractive 1983. Drink now-2015.
WA 90 (1/1989): This house makes rather restrained yet rich, flavorful vintage port and a very good tawny called Nimrod. Their vintage ports seem slow to develop, and while they never quite have the voluptuous richness of a Dow, Graham, or Fonseca, they have a unique mineral-scented character that gives them their own complexity and style. The 1983 is richly perfumed and fragrant, which is so typical of the ports from this vintage, and is seemingly more forward than normal. |

WS 95 (4/1997): (WS #15 wine of 1997) A great surprise for the vintage. Displays fabulous concentration and complex character with its layers of very sweet fruit, chocolate and cherry aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins. Long finish with plenty of grip. Beautiful wine. Best after 2008. 13,000 cases made.
JD 94 (3/2018): The 1994 Vintage Port is pure finesse and elegance. Cedarwood, blackberry liqueur, plums, and exotic spices are followed by a medium to full-bodied, elegant, seamless beauty that has a terrific mix of richness and freshness. It’s a beautiful wine.
WA 94 (10/1996): One of the finest Warres I have ever tasted, this opaque purple-colored wine is made in a drier style (a la Dow), yet it is expressive, extremely full-bodied, with superb richness, purity, and well-integrated alcohol and tannin. It possesses a great mid-palate as well as impressive length. Tasters should take note of the wealth of peppery, licorice-scented and flavored raspberry and blackcurrant fruit. Look for it to be ready to drink in 10-12 years, and keep for 30+. This is a profound example of Warre vintage port.
MB [*****] (4/1996): Said to have a 'typical cistus nose' i.e. resinous. Anyway, the most intensely dark of all the Symington's '94s. Very sweet, lovely flavour, perfect balance, good length. Lasted tasted April 1996. Great future. Drink 2006-2026. |
