The Quinta do Vesuvio 1995 Library Release is a refined Vintage Port from the historic Quinta do Vesuvio estate, owned by the Symington family since 1989. This Library Release marks the second time the 1995 vintage has been released in larger quantities since its first availability as a primeur. The Port is traditionally made by foot-pressing in granite lagares, an age-old method that contributes to the exceptional complexity and fantastic ageing potential of this wine.
The 1995 vintage is predominantly a blend of traditional Douro grape varieties, and matured under optimum conditions in the Symingtons' cellars. Each bottle shows the cork date and has a new, elegant packaging specially designed for the Library Release.
Tasting notes:
- On the nose: Intriguing aromas of lavender, cistus, pine resin and Mediterranean herbs.
- On the palate: A silky texture with polished tannins, richness of black cherry, plum and strawberry.
- Finish: Refined and layered, with a hint of licorice adding to the complex depth.
This 1995 vintage is a superb representation of Quinta do Vesuvio, offering a harmonious balance of fruity richness and spicy complexity. Perfect for enjoying now or further maturing, this Library Release is a valuable addition to any collection.
