1970 Graham

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled by John Harvey & Sons of Bristol. Deep red with rich, brick tones. Gentle Christmas cake with rich, candied cherry - very lovely. Soft and silky texture with gorgeous flavours of rich cherry, flavoursome spices and a slow build up to a massive palate presence and perfect balance. Long and wonderful finish. A superb bottle of a very fine port. 96/100. Drunk 24-Jun-14. Decanted 7½ hours.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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