96 Points - Robert Parker. Crafted from the Douro's finest indigenous grape varieties, led by Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz, Fonseca Vintage Port is renowned for its depth, richness and remarkable ageing potential. Sourced from the house's celebrated quintas, it combines powerful dark fruit with freshness and structure, making it one of Portugal's benchmark Vintage Ports. Taste
The outstanding 2000 vintage produced Vintage Ports of exceptional concentration and balance, thanks to favourable growing conditions that delivered ripe, healthy fruit with excellent freshness. Now entering a superb stage of maturity, this wine offers an expressive bouquet of blackberry, black cherry, plum, violet, liquorice and sweet spice.
