1977 Offley Vintage Port

[jon bricken]

Thought this was the perfect day to open a bottle and sit around with a glass.

While decanting it looked a little darker than I thought it would be, a beautiful pinot color with no bricking at the edges.

It thru a little sediment but not as much as I expected.

At first it was a little spirits on the nose which hid the fruit.

As I poured a little in the glass it opened up to reveal strawberry and cherry fruit.

The first sip was not as alcoholic as the nose indicated and had a persistent sour cherry finish which was most enjoyable.

I will be interested to see how it unfolds over the next day or two.

Sounds good, be sure to let us know how it unfolds.
