Symington's Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port 1997 is a single-quinta Vintage Port from Portugal's Douro Valley, bottled at 20% ABV. Quinta do Vesuvio has been under Symington Family Estates since 1989 and produces its vintage ports by traditional foot-treading in original 1827 granite lagares. The 1997 vintage draws on a field blend of Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca, Sousão and Tinta Amarela. The nose opens with concentrated dark berries and black cherry, then maple syrup, dark chocolate, espresso, walnut and licorice. The palate is medium-sweet and supple, with juicy blackberry and cassis, earthy spice, dark chocolate, full body and silky tannins. The finish is long and smooth, led by black cherry and blackcurrant, then fine-grained tannin and espresso bitterness.
