The Story
Warre's Vintage Port 2020 is a limited-production Portuguese Vintage Port created to commemorate Warre's 350th anniversary. Powerful and intensely structured, it displays aromas of blackberry, cassis, violets, graphite, and dark spice with firm tannins, vibrant freshness, and exceptional length, offering outstanding cellaring potential.
Food Pairing: Pairs best with Stilton, blue cheese, dark chocolate desserts, walnuts, dried figs, and mature hard cheeses.
97 Points - James Suckling
Exciting aromas of lead pencil and graphite with violets and crushed blackberries. A powerful and tannic Warre with dryness for this house. Tight and powerful with wonderful length. Complex and fresh. Three vines to produce one bottle. Old vines. Tiny production with only 2,400 bottles released. Commemorates Warre's 350th anniversary. Take a look after 2030.
96 Points - Wine Spectator
This is well-built and leans to the drier side, with a serious core of dark currant, fig and blackberry fruit held in check for now by a wall of brambly structure. Offers lots of spice, well-seasoned fruitcake and licorice root notes that fill in through the finish. Rock-solid. Best from 2040 through 2060.
