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 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
