Level into neck. Bottle opened and stood at 22.30 on 09 May 2021, and double decanted at 07.20 before being drunk at 20.40.
A mature red colour, slightly lighter than the other '55 Vintage Ports drunk on this night. Mature redcurrants on the nose. Gentle texture with sweet fruit holding a lovely fragrance and gentle spice. Lighter than the other two '55 Ports (which were Martinez and Mackenzie). 92/100. Drunk 10-May-21. Decanted 7½ hours.

Top Ports in 2022: Quinta do Noval Nacional 1931. I have never drunk such a wonderful bottle of Port. I cried with joy.
2023: Fonseca 1966. There are not many better Ports, except a good bottle of Fonseca 1927. Wow!
