90 points·Messias Vintage Port 2007
expand_moreThe 2007 Messias Vintage Port offers superb value. It displays an incipiently complex perfume of lavender, incense, mocha, blueberry, and blackberry. This leads to a medium-weight wine with good volume, rich fruit flavors, excellent depth, and a lengthy, savory finish. This nicely balanced effort will evolve for 8-10 years and drink well through 2030. It is hard to beat at its humble price.
