1974 Graham Single Harvest Tawny (bottled 2021)

[winesecretary]

1974 Graham Colheita, from a 5cl supplied by Vintage Wine and Port. Tasted on the day of the official Graham Colheita tasting, but separately.

P'n'P.

A fairly pale madeira brown. More pungent and petrol-y (in a good way) on the nose than the 1963.

Richly orange-fruited palate. Persistent.

This is really rather good aged colheita. Given recent even more positive experiences with the Quevedo 1974 Colheita -were we robbed of a potentially great vintage port by the Carnation Revolution?

Consumed over 90 minutes in glass, 15 April 2021.
