1970 Graham's Vintage Port
Oporto Bottled
Dark brown glass embossed with "Grahams 1970" with black lead capsule
Tasted on Saturday, 16 May 2009
Decanted at 1:05pm and tasted between 6:30-8:30pm.
This Oporto bottle had a fill level within neck. This sported a young, primary nose, more prune-like mixed with tobacco notes. There is a lot of power up front that makes way for a creamy finish and sweet aftertaste. Some residual sugar is apparent. It does not show the level of herbs/spices that the 1970 Warre's does.
