Morris Vintage
Morris makes miniscule volumes of vintage port, and it’s worth tracking down for $25 direct, particularly if you have the stamina to leave it in the cellar for 20 or 30 years. Shiraz touriga durif is an unusual blend, and it works remarkably well, providing delightful balance of violet perfume, blackcurrant and cassis fruit and loads of spice, dark chocolate and subtle sweetness. It will appreciate another decade or two for its drying spirit to integrate and its fine, grippy tannins to soften.
