Ch85: 80% opaque, red-red-purple. Young colour. Nose sweet, red cherry, and something high-toned. The taste evolved through the evening. Initially closed. later better balanced, a little roughness mid-palate, plum, and a nice bigness that countered its imperfectly smoothed corners. As ever, very satisfactory port. Would have been better with six hours decant time.
‘C’ on the placemats, for Churchill.
