[nac]

Part of Churchill vertical tasting @ B&F, Tuesday 1st March 2022.

Bottle supplied by GEAG. Was decanted by B&F staff approximately 6 hours before the tasting.

Smells odd but tastes fine. Peppery, red fruits. Chocolate. A touch sour. Ok

[winesecretary]

Very pale red. Spicy nose. Warm red licorice on the palate. Pleasant but minor port drinking well tonight, but to be drunk up.
