Opened 1230.
Mature, but full ripe red.
Full rich fruit cake of a port. So much weight.
Sultanas plumped with brandy. Then strawberry tart.
This is lovely rich port, and WOTN.
1966 Graham

Re: 1966 Graham
This was JDAW’s thoughts on the wine:
G66, d+5½h. Glorious red, 40% opaque. Nose of mature Port, with a hint of dark plum. Palate soft and full and lovely; coffee early; slight heat mid-palate; start to finish is an unctuous large fully mature Port. Really good.

Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
