Re: 1960 Warre Vintage Port
I gave the 1960 Warre's 92 points and the 1963 Taylor's 95 points. That is the best 1963 Taylor that I've had!

Re: 1960 Warre Vintage Port
I think that the vintage is incorrect. Shouldn’t it be a 1963?

Re: Vieira de Sousa 40 Year Old Tawny Port
I think it was corked. It got worse over the next few days and I dumped it

Re: é possível!
I agree it's pretty rare to see a tawny leaking. Of course most of them are drunk soon after bottling. This must just be a bad cork.

Re: 1998 Ramos Pinto Late Bottled Vintage Port
This is certainly the best LBV I have ever had. I finished the remainder 2 weeks later and it was still fresh and irresistible!

Re: 1977 Graham's vintage port
I would say that it's a very balanced Port. Not too intense or powerful, but not lacking either. I'm glad it showed well for you.!

Re: 1985 Smith Woodhouse vintage port
Takk Rune. I am used to it being a beast - a big angry wine that needs time in the decanter. I'll pull one from my collection soon.

Golden yellow color. Looks old, but not too old. Enticing nose. Medium/full bodied. Surprisingly fresh! Substantial citrus. Med+ finish. Really delicious now. Drink now, but will likely hold for a few more years. 92 points
