1982 Palmer Colheita (bottled 2021)

Post by SCP »

From 60ml, bottled 2021. From Barão de Vilar, part of the Palmer Decades Book of Port.

A rare tasting note from me (take with a handful of salt), but given only one other in the index for this shipper... Red-brown colour. Some nice caramel and soft red fruit, but quite musty on the nose and hot on the palate. I have higher hopes for the others in the series. Ok, but not memorable.

(for comparison Quevedo 1994 colheita and Fletcher 40 yo tawny were both better on the night)
