Fonseca Vintage Port Blend 1985

Andrew S

Fun bottle. PNP. Needs some time to add complexity. Certainly enjoyable but still somewhat young in the grand scheme.

Daron Watson

1985 was 1 of the 36 declared vintages of the past 100 years by the Instituto dos Vinhos do Douro e Porto - one of the best actually which they describe as “exceptional quality...a classic vintage, harvested under perfect conditions” Fonseca stepped to it delivering a wonderful that after 30+ years still is powerful yet has integrated any alcohol heat

Jan Konetzki

Has another 20 years ahead. Fragrant complex. Great length

Lovely chocolate overtones. A very pleasant drinking port. Round and full and rich.

Henry Patland

Very nice and subtle port

Michael Phillips

If tasted blind would think it was 5-10 yrs old. Deep robust color with no brown edge.Rich plummy youthful Porto. Wonderful.

Doug Powers

Absolutely lovely, yet incredibly youthful, classic Fonseca, wonderful sweetness, balanced, still quite dense purple color, very long finish, absolutely a great bottle!!

Doug Powers

Lovely sweet fruit still, sweetness on palate that is so Fonseca, lovely vintage Porto, drinking beautifully but years ahead of this wonderful Fonseca Porto.
