Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Once a byword for indifferent Ports, Royal Oporto has totally revamped its winemaking, and this 2003 vintage is the result. It is dark and dry, with layers of firm fruit. Flavors of black figs give a lift to the Port. Imported by Admiral Wine Imports.

Big, plump and fruity, soft and round. The fruit is ripe, sweet, layering black figs and black, spicy cherries. The wine is a charmer, a pleasure to drink now, but not for aging.

A delicious, easy wine that floats by with orange marmalade and fresh acidity. Marred on the finish by some volatility.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An intensely sweet wine, with mature fruit that shows some richness and orange marmalade flavors. It is spoiled by a hint of volatility, which leaves a sharp aftertaste. Imported by Admiral Imports.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An herbal, mineral wine, rather lean in character, with flavors of rosemary. The acidity sears through the wine. The elements are almost there, but it will always be austere.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A ripe wine, touched with caramel, plenty of spice and acidity as well as a tight, tannic edge. The start is sweet, but the wine soon veers drier, leaving acidity as well as the firmest tannins.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
While it is quite dark in color, this wine still has plenty of good, 10-Year Oldfresh fruit flavors. Perfumed and delicate, it has light sweetness and a good layer of fruit and wood acidity, leaving a dry aftertaste. Its quality is an indication of the impressive improvements that have occurred at Royal Oporto in recent years.
