The night after the Niepoort tasting with Nick Delaforce, friends old and new met with Nick to drink some bottles that they brought. The venue was the Morning Star pub, Pottinger's Entry, Belfast, who found us about 80 glasses and served us with fine steaks.

The highest fill from the unknown, mixed lot (containing numerous T60) that also contained the low-fill T60 tasted at this event.

The bottles, interestingly, were different, despite the ports having the same origin and provenance.

Julian thought darker than the low-fill.

Very little nose, delicate fruitiness in the mouth, small heat.

T60 (high fill). Red-brown, 30% opaque. Mature port, rather light, with cherry, and some heat showing.
