Producer notes: "From the Baga grape planted in chalky-clay soils from vines with an average age of forty years. Vinified in stainless steel vats for ten days, it was matured in used casks (650 litres of capacity) for fifteen months. To be dished up with gamey meats as well as other red meat dishes. It will last more than fifteen years."

Robert Parker: "[$80 list] The 2000 Passadouro possesses plenty of fruit, but it is more muted, with less spice and personality than the Broadbent. It exhibits a similar dense ruby/purple color, medium to full body, a soft, evolved character, but less aromatic and flavor dimensions. Drink it over the next 15 years."

95 points Wine Spectator: "Complex aromas of crushed berries, pepper and spices. Full-bodied, with medium sweetness and layers of polished tannins. Masses of berry, plum and citrus character. This single-vineyard Port is always superb. Best after 2014. (4/30/06)"
93 points Stephen Tanzer (International Wine Cellar): "[$78 list] Full ruby. Pure, sexy aromas of black fruits, minerals and spice cake. Concentrated, superrich and impressively structured; a sweet, dense, primary wine with terrific depth and breadth. Offers intriguing hints of woodsmoke and pomegranate, and conveys a strong sense of extract. The vibrant finish features compellingly sweet tannins and a whiplash of black cherry and licorice flavor. A great showing already, but this should reward 12 to 15 years of aging. (Jan/Feb 2006)"
