1922 Sandeman?
On Thursday 13th December 2012 a subset of the obvious suspects gathered at the Bell, Wendens Ambo CB11 4JY, to taste some treasures.

Deep red in colour, with a very youthful appearance; 90% opaque. Burnt toast on the nose, with lots of floral perfumes and blue fruit. Massive palate, full of sweet and rich fruit - lots of sweet red cherry, really mouthfilling. Fabulous fragrance and elegance - and so youthful. Floral and fruity aftertaste, then a long clover honey finish. Amazing wine. 97/100
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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