1966 Graham

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

From Alex Marshall. Identified from the branded cork.

Deep red, a rich and mature colour, 80% opaque. Red fruit and baking spices on the nose, a nose which is full of fragrance. Mouth-filling with generous fruit and a superb structure. Fresh with a little refined tannins giving just the right amount of grip. Cherry and milk chocolate finish. This is rich and full of life. Fabulous! 95/100. 15-Dec-22. Decanted 1½ hours.
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, except a good bottle of Fonseca 1927. Wow!
