1945 Graham

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

A deep burnished mahogany. Less spice showing on the nose than when first decanted. A lovely mouthfeel; huge entry with enormous flavours - spice, raisins and considerable complexity. A massive aftertaste, long and full of flavour on the finish. A really great bottle of a stunning port. 98/100. Drunk 24-Nov-15. Decanted 4 hours.

Drunk at Otto's on 24 November 2015.
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!
