1966 Graham

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Mature copper-red colour, 30% opaque. A little limited on the nose, showing some faint cranberry sauce. A lovely texture on the palate, delightful tannins and cranberry sauce on the palate. Full of life and totally vivacious. Great acidity keeps the palate focused and the fruit to the fore. Lingering cranberry and raspberry finish. Really lovely. Served blind, was guessed to be Kopke São Luiz 1977. 94/100. Drunk 28-Dec-23.
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!
