We gathered together to taste some '70 and '77 port. And one 1933!

Re: 1970 Cockburn
30% opacity, red-brown, nice and clear. Tobacco on the nose. Gentle heat all along the palate, slightly bitter edge, coffee grinds? I guessed Cr70.

Ck70 = “RLC”: red-pink, 30% opaque. Initially heat and acidity with no fruit. Later sweetness showed, which nicely balanced the acidity.
