Decanter priming sample. Pleasant, but slight VA. Not rated.
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!

Ca75 Medium red, starting to brown and thin at the rim. Very drinkable but overshadowed by many of the other ports on the night.

30% warm red brown. Smooth although not much structure, some sweetness and a syrupy aftertaste.

Cá75. Dark-ish red, 50% opaque. Palate of rich red cherry. Lots of heat mid-palate.
