Messias, 1977

Colheita Port, Douro
bottled in 1991

Description and Reviews:
The extended barrel ageing has given this 1977 Messias colheita a complex fusion of dried fruit and cedar notes. On the palate the wine is smooth and full bodies with plenty nuts and sweet fruit on the palate, fine balance. A tremendous finish which goes on. There's no question about the quality on display here. This will store well for many more years.
