1996 Starboard Californian Port

Post by JacobH »

Tasted at The Big Fortified Tasting, a trade fair in London at Glaziers Hall on Wed 06 April 2011 (Review thread, containing links to other tasting notes). This being a large trade-fair event, tasting notes generally brief.

Quady 1996 VP
‟Starboard” American Port. Alarmingly cloudy. Sprity on the nose. Feels slightly past its best which is disappointing. It was not clear how the 1996 vintage compared to those in the Douro.
