1910 Constantino Colheita

Post by AHB » 11:46 Sat 05 Nov 2011

Bottled in 1971. Cloudy, opaque and with a green rim. Foul nose, perhaps oxidised and bad or perhaps just pronounced bottle stink. Hollow entry, bland with only some white pepper on the mid palate. Hot aftertaste and a bitter, dry finish. Not a good bottle. Not rated. Drunk 14 October 2011.
Top Ports in 2018 (so far): Niepoort VV (1960's Bottling), Quinta do Noval Nacional 1994 and San Leonardo Very Old White (Bottled 2018)
2017 Ports of the year: Fonseca 1927 and Quinta do Noval 1927
