Fonseca Vintage Port - 1997 (750ml) Muscat I would give bottles anotherSomewhat of a lightweight for Fonseca, but undeniably charming, this dark ruby purple colored wine offers a floral, exotic, flamboyant bouquet, a sweet, fleshy style, but not a great deal of weight or massiveness. Heady alcohol, sweet tannin, and a velvety texture make for a gorgeous finish. While I would have preferred to have seen more weight, structure, and intensity, this is an outstanding, albeit lighter than normal Fonseca. Robert Parker 93
