Very light in colour compared with the other 1994s at the table. I have no note on the nose. In the mouth slightly dry, slightly short and earthy. I don't think this was a good bottle of this port.

[NickA]

Lightest of the flight. A pinched nose, almost like lead pencil, nutty and quite tertiary. Dried fruits and a burnt raison finish. This bottle at least is past its best.

35% opacity, orange brown. Mature mouthfeel, extracted fruits.
