1977 Graham's Vintage Port
Decanted at 1:00pm and tasted between 6:30pm - 8:30pm

This Oporto bottle had a fill level within neck. A medium nose of perfumed, gritty, blue fruit. Wow, this is huge in the mouth, sporting smooth, creamy blue fruit and sweet cinnamon in the finish. Powerful and well-balanced, I think it just started to open up after 8 hours which is when I drank my last sip!

I agree Aaron, this needs a good amount of aeration. Recent bottles have shown a very nice progression from how tough this was to enjoy even a half decade ago.
