Called into action during the holidays when a bottle of Noval LBV turned out to be corked, this Vintage Port was a pleasant surprise. Medium-bodied, with moderate sweetness and balancing acidity, this '97 Delaforce has excellent depth of fruit, fine tannin and no sense of being over the hill at all - This bottle has plenty of life left in it. Drink now or hold for another 5 years or so. Tasted Dec 2012.

This stuff is awesome. Loads of baked dark fruit and sweet tobacco. ...but not too sweet. It's smooth but with a little bite of freshness. Easy to sip on this all night long.
