<p>Croft 2011 Vintage PortProducer Tasting Notes:Deep purple black colour. The complex seductive nose has the archetypal Croft opulence but displays impressive depth, background and reserves of aroma. A rich, powerful fruitiness provides the backdrop for heady scents of blossom and rock rose. Luscious ripe berry fruit flavour surges though the palate. The wine’s velvety texture is underpinned by taut, muscular, perfectly integrated tannins which provide stamina with an attractive firmness and vigour to the finish.Critics’ Tasting Notes:”Beautiful aromas of violets and blueberries with hints of blue slate. Full body, medium sweet with chewy tannins and a long, long finish. A leafy, stemmy, nutty undertone to this with hints of shaved milk chocolate. Very refined and beautiful. 5,000 cases produced of this foot-trodden wine. Try in 2021.”95/100 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, May 2013″This shows very sweet fruit that’s ripe, dense and already delicious. That doesn’t mean the tannins don’t bring out the firmness at the core of this powerful wine. It is integrated, packed with black plum flavors, and full bodied. For long-term aging.”95/100 points, Wine Enthusiast, January 2013Also rated #13 in the Wine Spectator “Top 100 Wines” of the year, 2013Croft 2011 Vintage Port Croft Family Port Shippers from Fraziers Wine Merchants</p>
