I'm not having much fun with any ports from about 1991-2000 at the moment. While I accept that this is a huge generalisation, my working assumption is that wines from this period - with notable exceptions of 94-96 are somewhat closed and not very enjoyable.
Anything from 91/92 or from 97-00 is currently off limits from my corkscrew. All others - beware!
