Critic Ratings
Wine Spectator Review – Rated 95:
Offers lovely perfumed aromas and beautiful raspberry and blackberry character, turning to tar, black truffle and wet earth. Full-bodied and medium sweet, with a balance of very chewy tannins and sugary fruit at the finish. This goes on and on. The great 1994 again?
Wine & Spirits Review – Rated 94:
This massive, glass-coating wine has a purple edge deepening to the center, where it glows black. But rather than feeling massive, it’s elegant, the way that the roar of a Moto Guzzi is elegant. It’s mellow and relaxed as the flavors plow on for minutes in a crush of black satin. You might find green peppercorn, scents of edamame or savory and sweet tobacco in its wake. As fascinating and delicious as this wine may be to spar with today, it will likely be best 20 to 30 years from now.
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate Review – Rated 93:
The 2007 Warre Vintage Port is one of the stars of the vintage. A glass-coating opaque purple color, it displays an expressive bouquet of Asian spices, incense, lavender, blackberry, and fruitcake. Plush on the palate with outstanding volume, it exhibits a sense of elegance as well as power. Savory flavors, plenty of structure for the long haul, and a lengthy, fruit-filled finish suggests two decades of cellaring are in order. This superb effort should still be drinking well in 2050.
