This port was purchased (by Axel) directly from Davy's on the night as an addition to the tasting, and was pop'n'poured to allow comparison of Ch94 with the Mz94.

I clean forgot that we had this. Was it necessary? No, as the 19th glass of the night. Did we finish it? Yes.

[Alex Bridgeman]

Bought from Davy's Exchange at Woolgate. Mature red colour, 60%. Dirty nose, smelling of plastic or resin. Empty entry, with modest fruit and pleasing tannins on the mid-palate. Gentle finish of good length. 87/100.
