1985 Churchill vintage port

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Served as an aperitif to the Matrix Tasting on 11 October 2011.

Mature red in colour; warm and very attractive nose. Sweet and mature fruit on the palate, very tasty and with a delightful spicy clove component. An enjoyable aftertaste makes this a fine port for current drinking. 88/100.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

2026: DR Very Old White, Graham Stone Terraces 2011, Quevedo Branco 1986 b.2026
