Nose and palate both good. Liked. 5/7 and 1/2 a point.

Not sure about this on the nose.

Better on the palate. But not really nice. I would drink it out of duty or obligation rather than pleasure.

Not wrong but I have had better bottles.

BBR83. Bright red, 40% opaque. Very dusty, in a weird dry way. Not bad, but not good.

Neil was wrong.

E: A pretty red colour, tending to light brown at the rim.
N: A strange yet muted note on the nose.
P: Straightforwardly acceptable vintage Port.
I heard that this BBR was produced by W.

40% opacity, mature red. REd fruit, tea and tobacco on the nose. A bit flabby, lacking backbone, tea.
