Description

Churchill’s – Vintage Port 2017 (750ml)

Churchill’s 2017 Vintage Port has a very deep violet colour, with a resinous intensity on the nose and layers of fresh blueberry aromas upfront. Exuberant and vinous on the palate, with flavours of crushed blackberries in combination with a gravelly tannic structure, this wine has a vibrant natural acidity contributing to a long-lasting finish.

Critical Acclaim

WS96
Wine Spectator
Ripe, juicy and focused, this features a core of steeped fig, boysenberry and blueberry fruit, well-harnessed by a sleek, graphite-edged structure and infused liberally with anise, fruitcake and Christmas pudding notes. Vivid and racy in feel through the finish. Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barocca, Tinta Francisca and Tinta Cão. Best from 2035 through 2055.

Wine Enthusiast

The potential of this great wine is enormous. Floral and richly structured, with layers of black fruits, the Port has a density and tough edges that are both essential to aging. Drink this rich, ripe wine from 2032.

Editors’ Choice

JS93
James Suckling
Lots of raisins and tar, as well as ash and treacle tart, making for a heady, powerful nose. Full-bodied, sweet and quite tannic with juicy layers of morello cherries and blackberries. Drink from 2030.
D92
Decanter
Sultry and brooding, with a rich black fruit character that’s spicy on the nose and sweet on the palate.
