1952 Graham Single Harvest Tawny

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep brown, mahogany. Cut apples and VA on the nose. Gentle flavours caress the tongue. Lovely acidity - masses of honey and golden syrup but fabulous lemon juice acidity gives terrific balance. Very big flavours but a wonderful freshness to the wine. Delicious aftertaste and finish. Lovely port, mouthfilling and complex. 94/100. 11-Jun-12. Decanted 10 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!
