2011 Graham

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Modest nose, taking several days to make a proper appearance when it mixed lavender and morello cherries. Velvety texture, full of ripe, lush fruit that is wrapped around powerful iron tannins. A huge aftertaste and a massive finish. This is an immense, complete port with a long life ahead of it. 97-99. Tasted over 1-4 days as part of the extended 2011 tasting.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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