1977 Croft Vintage Port - TCA
Posted: 21:26 Wed 11 Mar 2009
Dekanted on Friday during my Croft tasting. Cloudy color with a good structure. Brownish. Strong nose, but TCA-spoiled.
I left it in the bottle and vacumised (I hope this word exists) it. After 5 days smooth, balanced and still strong with the TCA totally gone. The port itself was not fully strong anymore. Nice, definitely better without TCA. Toffee and malty notes.
