Tasting Notes For Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port 2022
Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port 2022 is a stellar and noteworthy expression that reflects the exceptional qualities of the vintage and the terroir of the estate. Pouring into the glass with a deep and profound ruby-red color, the wine immediately commands attention. The nose is an intricate tapestry of aromas, featuring an abundance of dark fruits. Blackberries and plums take center stage, complemented by hints of violets, creating an olfactory profile that is both intense and sophisticated.
On the palate, this Vintage Port unveils a rich and complex array of flavors. Ripe black fruits dominate, showcasing blackberry and cassis, intertwined with layers of dark chocolate, subtle spice, and a touch of tobacco.

Critic Ratings
Wine Spectator Review - Rated 96:
This is very stylish, with a beautiful display of black cherry, boysenberry and blackberry puree notes flecked with dried anise and violet. Seamless, with a long, graphite-accented finish that flows wonderfully. Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Alicante Bouschet and Tinta Amarela. Best from 2040 through 2060. 1,710 cases made, 100 cases imported.
James Suckling Review - Rated 95:
The nose shows figs, prunes and graphite. This is full, juicy and unctuous with chewy tannins, lots of blackberries and a long tannic finish. Drink now.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Review - Rated 96:
I found the regular and classical vintage wine, the 2022 Vintage Port, to be a lot more expressive, aromatic, floral and complex than the (much more expensive) Capela do Quinta do Vesúvio. It has a dense and seamless palate, full, rich, expressive and tasty, with plenty of tannins but with all its components in nice harmony. It's intense and long, very precise, large but proportioned. This should develop very nicely and for a long time in bottle. This 2022 was crafted with 45% Touriga Nacional, 33% Touriga Franca and an unusually high 22% of Alicante Bouschet. It has 20% alcohol, with a pH of 3.63 and 112 grams of acidity. Often the sweet wines look better in comparative tastings; this one did. It does seem to have more of everything...
