Dark orange, looking rather mature. Offensively smelly on the nose, smells stewed or baked. Thick texture, with coffee and burnt orange on the tongue before a very unpleasant rubbery mid-palate - almost like licking an elastic band. Rubber dominates the aftertaste and finish. Very unpleasant - but clearly a bottle not cared for. Not rated.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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