Auction: SFW04 - An Evening of Exceptional Wines
Lot: 237
1982 Croft Port Very pale and obviously stretched in colour, almost a deep rose at the centre and turning tawny on the rim; clean, some fragrance but not much richness or depth, rather hollow and attenuated, soft fruit pastille character both on the nose and palate, still tasting quite fresh, a touch of medicinal raspberry and strawberry character with just a vestige of bitter-sweet tannic grip remaining. Falls away quite quickly on the finish leaving rather simple fruit pastille sweetness. 75cl / 15% 12 bottles
Estimate
HK$5,000 to HK$6,000
