Monday 29th September 2008, afternoon, in the Fonseca lodge with Roy Hersh’s Harvest Tour.

Tasted:

• 1970 Fonseca;
• 1985 Fonseca;
• 1994 Fonseca;
• 1977 Taylor;
• 1985 Taylor;
• 1994 Taylor;
• 1977 Croft;
• 1991 Croft.

1991 Croft: full red, no brown. Smell odd, but nice: stewed rhubarb. Mid-palate roughness. Fades, then returns, to produce late heat. A vegetal something throughout the nose and palate.
