This is powerful, complex, yet elegant Vintage Port style. Picked at 14.9 baume to retain a vibrant balance of flavours in the elegant Douro style (alot of Australian vintage ports are often picked too late with overripe raisin characters and broad structure). Duane’s aim is for all of the elements (spirit, acidity, tannin, sugar and flavour) to be in balance – when balance is achieved there is a poise, delicacy and harmony that rival any of the world’s great wines. Foot-trodden in the Portuguese manner.  Wild yeasts followed by fortification with grape spirit and 22 mths maturation in old oak. Savoury licorice notes over berry fruit. Long finish, with super-fine tannin. This is extraordinary now and will reward further cellaring for 20 years.
