Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 93
The 1977 Fonseca is slightly lighter in color and shows some ambering on the rim of the glass. Lilies, cherries, coffee, mocha, and green flower notes can be discerned in its penetrating aromatics. Softly textured, this wine's mouth-feel is exciting yet not as enthralling as the 1983's. Its warm personality is interspersed with toasted walnuts, cassis, and plummy blackberries. Its super-long, sweet finish is harmonious and flavorful.
Wine Spectator 100
Until recently this wine was understated and closed. Now it has opened into a mammoth wine with so much fruit that it crushes your palate. Deep ruby, with ripe raspberry and cherry aromas, full-bodied, with layers of concentrated, sweet raspberry flavors.
Clive Coates 19
Fullish, well matured colour. Quite a firm nose. A big wine as always. Very good depth of fruit. Plenty of energy. Full body on the palate. Spendidly rich and concentrated. Excellent grip. Lots of depth and dimension. Really lovely. Splendid finish. Will last for ages. Very fine indeed.
