The 1999 Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port offers a mixture of red and black fruit, cigar humidor. A quite noticeable marine/seaweed element comes through with aeration, becoming more iodine-like. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins that frame the lightly spiced black fruit. It feels quite sweet and viscous towards the finish, even if it does deliver as much complexity as the 2009 or 2019. Neal Martin1st June 2021
