Verdelho Single Harvest 2007 as a gift for wine lovers

If you’re looking for the Holy Grail for Port wine lovers, this is the perfect plan. This comes from a single grape variety, Verdelho, and a single year, 2007. An intense and highly complex wine. Immensely fragrant: walnuts, almonds, caramel, candied orange, dried apricot, cinnamon, nutmeg and an antique pirate barrel base reminiscent of the sea and iodine. On the palate, it’s like a 100m race dessert at the Olympics: energetic, velvety, mineral, finely tannic and explosive. Perfection without having to spend hundreds of dollars.
