Thanks to Rob for very generously buying a bottle of wine to go with dinner at a recent offline, and for making such an inspired choice.
I didn't make an extensive note on this wine, but do remember really enjoying it. The note I did make reads "Mature and tasty on the nose and the palate. Very enjoyable, what mature claret should be." I didn't score at the time, but from memory would rate it around 85/100.

Top Ports in 2022: Quinta do Noval Nacional 1931. I have never drunk such a wonderful bottle of Port. I cried with joy.
2023: Fonseca 1966. There are not many better Ports.
