"Loads of tar and blackberry aromas follow through to a full-bodied palate, with medium sweetness, big, velvety tannins and a long finish. A big, juicy wine. Best after 2015. 8,500 cases made. 94 points" Wine Spectator
"A harmonious Port. Very grapey, with a hint of tar and dried roses. Medium-bodied, medium sweet, with silky tannins and a medium finish. Not a great Croft, but pleasant. Best after 2008. 7,300 cases made. 88 points" Wine Spectator
"Good aromas and flavors of pepper, raisin and ripe fruit in this young vintage Port. Medium-bodied, medium-sweet, with a fresh aftertaste. Not as good as when tasted from barrel. Best after 2005. 87 points" Wine Spectator
"Pretty floral, honey and light caramel aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied, with a lovely sweetness and a lightly savory, toffee finish with just the right amount of nuttiness. Drink now. 89 points" Wine Spectator
