Description

From the outstanding 1970 vintage, the Ramos Pinto is a beautiful port. Excellent colour with a little red. On the nose jammy strawberries, spice, a hint of pepper and liquorice. On the palate, so beautifully smooth and in great balance, red fruit some violets. A long long finish. This is a beautiful wine.

Reviews
"Mature in appearance with a wide rose rim; 60% opaque but full of fine sediment. Delicious redcurrants on the nose, mature and sweet. Rounded and sweet on the palate with lots of sweet fruit but lacking a little acidity so feeling a touch flabby. Very sweet on the late palate, with lots of parma violets which appear on and dominate the aftertaste. The violet fruit flavours show all over the finish. " AHB The Port Forum

*** 95 pts- Wine Advocate- Oct 2016***
The 1970 Vintage Port is a field blend (that practice changes beginning with the 1983) and the moment when we arrive in the relatively modern era in our vertical this issue. There are no compromises here. This is terrific, focused and beautiful, a wine with tension, complexity, flavor and structure. Tightly wound, it finishes dry and seriously, with still-powerful (but not searing) tannins. The rich, sexy fruit is delectable and the velvety texture makes it sensual as well as sexy. Overall, this is in a pretty good place, but it should have a lot of life left, too. Mark Squires- RobertParker.com
