1991 Graham
By the glass from Vinum. Deep rose red with a touch of bricking; 80% opaque. Little on the nose at first but patience allows some bruised plum to develop. Lovely, gentle entry. Sweet but balanced fruit with an elegant acidity that combine to give tasty current drinking. Rich aftertaste and a fine finish. Not a port which will hold for many years, but an enjoyable wine for now and the mid-term. 89/100. Drunk 25-Jun-14. Pop 'n' pour.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
