Made completely from Portuguese varietals used for vintage Port (Tourriga Nacional, for example), the 1998 Portsorts is the finest vintage Port look-alike I have tasted outside Portugal. It possesses striking complexity, offering notes of licorice, leather, coffee, prunes, blackberries, and cassis. Extremely full-bodied, with beautifully integrated alcohol, this large-scaled, youthful, unevolved wine is a compelling example of what Portuguese varietals can achieve in Australia. This 1998 will drink well for two or more decades.Importer: Old Bridge Cellars (Rob McDonald), Napa, CA; tel. (707) 258-9552
