1997 Fonseca
Boxing Day, 26th December 2008, a modest selection of Fonsecas were sampled, really for the joy of doing so. There are several threads pertaining to this tasting.

Fonseca 1997, having been decanted well in advance though I failed to record when. Provided by MW.
The same black-red as the others, but the colour also containing a hint of grey. And, though apparently not there at opening, an ’orrible bottle stink that wouldn’t go away. Not enjoyed by me; not rated.
