Re: TN: 1910 Barbeito Boal
Had this many times-bottle stink is trait with this wine.
This and the 1912 are two of my favorites.

Re: my luck-1963 Fonseca
No.
The first was a 1 or 2 off.
But the 2/10 one was from a batch that I have had many times.

my luck-1963 Fonseca
Last year a off bottle-my first in 40 years.
Today a lesser bottle(16/20)-most have been 19/20 or higher?
Any other opinions?

Re: What about Graham-VP
Disagree with Andy and many of you on Taylor (lost 10 years-the 80's)-I think Taylor 80,83, and 85 were very good wines.

What about Graham-VP
I have been a Taylor and Fonseca fan for 40 years to the max. But what about Grahams. The first big trade was 2 1/2 cases of 1963 Grahams for 1 case of 1966 Lafite(a very so-so wine). One of my best trades. Tonite 4 days after opening-a glass of 1963 Grahams-great. I may be too centered on F & T.

Re: 1968 Krohn's Colheita Port
I agree had one Thur. it was great much better than the 66 K. Tasted with a 1966 Fonseca(the best 66 F I've had in
more than 30 years) and the 68 K was equal.
