Fonseca Guimaraens Vintage Port 2012

Very fine and beautifully balanced, the 2012 Guimaraens combines the depth and richness of Quinta do Panascal with the clearly delineated fruit and heady scented quality of the Pinhão Valley.

"The 2012 Fonseca Guimaraens explodes from the glass with black plums mixed with cassis, fresh fig and prune with a touch of warm - all very in keeping with the Fonseca style (a bit unruly but a lot of boisterous fun!) The palate is sweet on the entry with fresh prune, raisins and white pepper. This is a feisty, spicy little number without the depth of peacock's tail you would find in a declaration, yet well balanced and very pure on the finish. Excellent. Drink this over the next 20+ years or so." - Neal Martin
