Fareham Wine Cellar is hosting a tasting of the 2007 Vintage Port on Saturday 4 July 2009 from 11am to 2pm
As we only have small quantites of each port, numbers are very limited. I will therefore need a RSVP if you wish to attend the tasting. This is on a strictly first come, first served basis.
The 2007 Vintage Ports are a result of unusual vintage conditions – despite a challenging growing season with a drier than average winter, and cool, damp late spring, the vintage was saved by a dry August, which although also cool, allowed the fruit to mature properly.The great attraction of the 2007 vintage ports is their exquisite freshness and purity. The wines exude lifted, floral characters, backed by crunchy black berry fruit. The classic spicy notes that one expects in vintage port are in evidence, but the wines seem measured and even approachable. Despite this apparent approachability, they will without a doubt last for many years in the cellar.
All the big names will be on taste – a rare opportunity to taste, contrast and compare!
