Bulas – Colheita 1996 – Porto

The nose is fruity, aromatic and offers a fine intensity, elegance and a very fine richness. It reveals notes of Zante currants, dried mirabelle plum and small notes of quince, dried apricot associated with fine hints of fig, date, honey and dried fruits (hazelnut, almond). The mouth is fruity, well-balanced and offers a beautiful definition, a beautiful straightness, a beautiful tension, suavity, precision, finesse as well as roundness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of Zante currants, dried apricot, dried mirabelle plum and small notes of quince associated with discreet hints of honey, crystallized citrus, almond, caramelization as well as discreet hint of almond and an imperceptible hint of coffee. The finish is finely powerful. Beautiful and aromatic persistence.
