Dark berry fruit flavors marry deliciously with the tannins, leaving the palate wishing for more.\u003cbr\u003e\n A very fine Port wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e YEAR NOTES\u003cbr\u003e\n The 2003\/2004 winter was very dry, with only 1\/3 of rainfall recorded in the previous winter.\u003cbr\u003e\n Lack of water, during the early growing season, significantly reduced the risk of disease.\u003cbr\u003e\n In July, the biggest concern fell on the possibility of vineyards not having the capacity to sufficiently ripen the grapes, due to the drastic water shortage.\u003cbr\u003e\n The vintage stood out by perfect weather conditions throughout the period.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe young Ports show good structure with very fresh wild berries aroma, the result of a maturation period relatively cooler than normal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fonseca","offers":[{"title":"Fonseca","offer_id":48784126378314,"sku":"88301665","price":66.65,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/1244\/0906\/files\/fonseca-vintage-guimaraens-2004.jpg?v=1719590347","url":"https:\/\/www.almadeportugal.com\/en\/products\/fonseca-guimaraens-vintage-2004","provider":"Alma de Portugal","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
