1910 Constantino Colheita (bottled 1971)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

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 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
