Imperial College stock. Modest red colour, paling rim; 40% opaque. Mildly corked on the nose perhaps? The palate confirms a very slight hint of TCA. Drinkable, but not rated. 22-Mar-13. Decanted 7 hours.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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