Mz73 crusted. Orange-red, 20% opaque. Lots of varnish on nose. Palate had too much varnish, but fair size, especially for a crusted. Drink up.

This was interesting! It was a noticeably browner, lighter shade to the vintages around it. Light jelly with cherries and raspberries in the nose, with a very dry mouth, again of cherries. Pleasant.

30% opacity, orange brown. A little varnish on the nose. Gentle heat all the way through and a quick dry finish.

Mature, red-gold in colour; 20% opaque. Dirty on the nose, full of mothballs or naphthalene. Later this faded on the nose to deliver a gentle fruit. Modest bodied, gentle and mature fruit flavours. Gentle and elegant but a touch simple, a lovely gentle raisin and apricot. Soft and gentle on the finish. A delightful and elegant sipping port. 87/100.
