For The Love Of Port

1977 Gould Campbell Vintage Port
Like the Smith Woodhouse, this to was still a dark purple and showing no signs of age. A very primary nose of plums, blueberries that was big and bold. Another big bold VP that was loaded with complex chocolate, white pepper, licorise, and some wood. Although it was a tad disjointed right now, I think that was a function of just how young this still is. Easily will last another 20+ years before peaking. 95 Points.

Wow you've been drinking! Thanks for the post just bought some of these for my brother (his birth year).

These were the TNs from the 1st Annual FTLOP Port Gala in Seattle this past January. These are only the first day and a half. Still got 1 1/2 days to post about. Next years event promises to be even bigger

This is one of my top five of the vintage and I always love this particular bottling. Great stuff and it showed so very nicely. It was such an amazing value back in the day (it held steady at $29 for several years).
