The ports tasted at my fathers and two tasted tonight

41 Barros Colheita bottled 82.This was surprisingly dark in colour for a colheita big fat and sweet but not much else. 5-5.
58 Hoopers I picked this because I thought it the poorest and I was not dissapointed simialar in colour to the Barros light red not unlike a 70's lesser house.some figs but a sharp acid like finish.2.5-1
Croft 77 This was lovely fully mature simialar but not as good as the guimaraens 64 smooth all round 7-6
Delaforce 47,This was a surprise package expected not much read Michael Broadbents notes,But this was pretty good lost a bit of colour but the fruit was all there a bit short on the finish but I'll let this guy off for being sixty.7-6
Krohn half bottle 91.I liked this also I'm not a big fan of Krohns but this was a competant port fruity with a bit of muscle.6-?

Nice TN's, thanks. You obviously liked the Krohn 91 better than I did.
