1990 Graham's Malvedos

Post by RAYC »

From a half bottle, 1hr decant

Only 50% opaque but bright red without hint of bricking. Super sweet - all candied fruit and strawberry bubblegum chupa chups. Not a great deal of complexity but there's a nice weight to this port that makes it rather moreish. The half bottle disappeared quickly between two, but was let down by a rather stewed nose - not a port to nurse and contemplate life with.

[EDIT: re-reading old TNs, previous descriptions of bananas on the nose (particularly if slightly overripe) ring true]
