Quinta das Lamelas +40 YO White
One of my favorites when we are talking white ports. Very well balanced, powerful, very long and persistent taste- candy in a small bottle

1997 Niepoort VP
Cork pushed out maybe 1/4" under the capsule. Slight to moderate VA, but otherwise unflawed. I'm not bothered by low level VA so I really enjoyed the bottle.

1977 Dows Silver Jubilee VP. Had half last night and it was wonderful and lovely---only decanted about one hour and it got better over the4 evening. Put the other half immediately into a half bottle and corked it. Will enjoy the rest tonight and will give it enough air tonight. Showing no flaws at all so far.

Been drinking a Dow 10 year tawny that I must say is quite good
![[cheers.gif]](./images/smilies/cheers.gif "Toast")
. The "drier style" of Dow is more apparent in this tawny than it is on most of their VP's IMO.

Forgot a 1978 Kopke Colheita last week that I opened with some friends. It was nice, but I felt like it wasn't up to the level of the 1984 and 1974.

Oh yes, and bottles of Noval 1978 and Kopke Sao Luiz 1982 shared at a couple of offlines in late July, before I went on vacation.
