Fonseca Guimaraens Vintage Port 1986: In undeclared vintages Fonseca
bottle Guimaraens, provided the quality of the fruit is sufficient. This has a
good depth of colour, with a moderate red-tawny hue. The nose has exotic notes
of musky scent and spiced woods, together with some chocolate edged fruit. The
palate has an impressive texture and sweetness immediately apparent on entry.
Good fruit and a nice backbone of soft tannins. Elegant, with a touch of
complexity, with balance, very much in the house style. 16.5/20 (5/3/04)
