This was bottled in 2003. Nothing else is divulged about the constituent parts. Plenty of flakey sediment. Clean decant - had been stood up for two days. Meeting my need for a bold port to defeat the ongoing effects of cough and cold! Liquorice is the dominant flavour. Something almost medicinal about this, but that could just be my weakened state!

I know the plural of anecdote is not anecdata and all that (or whatever the phrase is), but I'm a strong believer that a good dose of alcohol and some comfort food can kill off a cold.

There is no medical evidence that the comfort food is necessary, but it probably can't do any harm.

Presumably comfort food = large piece of dead cow (or large portion of chick peas for one of our bretheren)
