Tasting Notes
| Wine Spectator 99 | |
| Seamless and statuesque. Clearly, one of the Ports of the vintage. Superbly concentrated and racy, with berry, coffee and jam character. Full-bodied and medium sweet, with big, velvety tannins. Long finish. | |
| Robert Parker 100 | |
| The 1997 Nacional is a legend from this pre-phylloxera vineyard. The color is a saturated black/purple. The nose reveals floral scents intermixed with coffee, blackberries, tar, cassis, licorice, and chocolate. Extremely full-bodied, but less massive and seamless, this spectacular Nacional will reach its plateau of maturity quickly, where it will remain for 2-3 decades. |
