Description

The 1991 Smith Woodhouse Vintage Port is a classic expression from a well-regarded vintage known for its balance and elegance. Smith Woodhouse, a respected producer in the Symington Family Estates portfolio, has crafted a Port with depth, intensity, and longevity, which showcases the character of the 1991 growing season.

On the nose, this Port opens with vibrant aromas of dark cherries, plums, and blackberries, layered with hints of licorice, dried figs, and subtle floral notes. There are also undertones of spices, such as cinnamon and clove, and a touch of earthy minerality that adds complexity.

The palate is rich and full-bodied, with concentrated fruit flavors and a smooth, velvety texture. The tannins are firm yet well-integrated, providing structure that balances the wine's sweetness. Black fruit flavors dominate, accompanied by nuances of cocoa, dried fruit, and a slight hint of leather as it develops with age.

The finish is long, warming, and complex, with lingering flavors of black fruit and spice. This 1991 vintage is drinking beautifully now but still has the potential to age further, making it an excellent choice for both immediate enjoyment and cellaring. Ideal with strong cheeses, dark chocolate, or enjoyed on its own as a contemplative glass, this vintage is a superb example of Smith Woodhouse’s dedication to quality and craftsmanship.
