1994 Warres Vintage Port
Excellent deep color. Very scented, with a luscious and concentrated blackberry fruit nose, combined with seductive floral hints. Rich and supple fruit flavors on the palate and a backbone of firm tannins. Finishes with superb richness and impressive length.
Critical Acclaim
95 Wine Spectator
A great surprise for the vintage. Displays fabulous concentration and complex character with it’s layers of very sweet fruit, chocolate and cherry aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins. Long finish with plenty of grips. Beautiful wine. Best after 2008. 13,000 cases made.
94 Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
One of the finest Warres I have ever tasted, this opaque purple-colored wine is made in a drier style (a la Dow), yet it is expressive, extremely full-bodied, with superb richness, purity, and well-integrated alcohol and tannin. It possesses a great mid-palate as well as impressive length. Tasters should take note of the wealth of peppery, licorice-scented and flavored raspberry and blackcurrant fruit. Look for it to be ready to drink in 10-12 years, and keep it for 30+. This is a profound example of Warre vintage port.
