1997 Graham

Post by TLW »

Decanted at about noon, drank at about 8 pm. Having a limited selection available at home, we elected to rob the cradle. Still almost opaque, raspberries on the nose, lots and lots of fruit - almost chewy, little heat and moderate length. This plainly has many years to go, and seems likely to develop into a very quaffable port. My college aged daughter preferred this one to the 1977 Graham due to its thick fruit; it will be interesting to see how her tastes change over time.
