The Offley Boa Vista Vintage Port comes from selected grapes in the Pinhao area and, of course, the Quinta de Boa Vista. The 2011 is a blend of 45% Touriga Nacional, 45% Touriga Franca and 10% Tinta Roriz, bottled in April. It has a high-toned bouquet with sweet blueberry and cassis aromas – very forward and perhaps not as complex as the Ferreira Vintage at the moment. The palate is actually better than the nose, in particular the fine tannins and the delicate dash of white pepper sprinkled over the finish. The Offley appears to have very impressive balance and after ten minutes in the glass, the nose begins to calm down and develops hints of clove and heather. This will need a little more patience than some of the other 2011 Vintage declarations. Tasted May 2013.

Notes of smoky oak can be discerned in the shy, spirit-laced aromatics of the 2003 Offley Boa Vista Vintage Port. A broad, thick, lush wine, it requires air to integrate its acidity and tannin with its copious quantities of candied red as well as black fruits. Drink it between 2018 and 2028.Importer: Evaton, Inc., Stamford, CT; tel. (203) 968-8220
