Tasting - "Warre's Warrior Porto"

Name: Warre's Warrior Port
Variety: Touriga Nacional
Region: Porto
Country: Portugal
Year: 2013
Price: $18.99

Winery review: "Warrior is a rich and full-bodied Port and has been matured in our cellars to a mellow balance of wild red-fruit flavours, supported by spicy and elegant tannins with a long and satisfying finish."

My review: Following my review of the Alamos Red Blend which was one of my favorites so far, this is my least favorite wine that I've tried yet.  It was far too sweet and desserty.  It had a spicy nose with hints of berry, and a palate with plum notes but didn't taste acidic in the slightest, and had almost no finish.  I would like to try a Port again in the future, but will be staying away from this one for sure.
