Drunk at the Barão de Fladgate Restaurant in the Taylor's Lodge.
Mature red, younger in appearance than the previous Port (the G48). 50% opaque. Intense nose, dense with slightly baked red fruit. Dense fruit on the palate, rich red fruit with a little bitterness. Nicely elegant with a smooth texture and good ripe fruit. Soft grip on the aftertaste, very nicely balanced. A lovely wine with good depth. 93/100. Drunk 16-Oct-22. Decanted 5 hours.

Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
