Fonseca´s 1985 Vintage Port
Vintage Report

Fonseca picked earlier than most other Shippers, and the harvest was brought in under ideal conditions before the rain, which fell later in the month of September, conditions were ideal for

fermentation resulting in must of exceptional colour and weight.

Tasting Notes

" Full bodied, powerful, still opaque; soft, sweet fleshy, well endowed with fruit, alcohol and tannin for longevity. My style of wine, magnificent."
Michael Broadbent, The Great Vintage Wine Book
"Deep ruby color, with concentrated blackberry and raisin aromas, full bodied, with massive raisin flavours, a superb backbone and a very long finish."
James Suckling, Vintage Port
