In the end, I gave it twelve hours, though I thought it still better later, when we returned to it after getting through a colheita. It is certainly lovely port.

Hi Will, sorry I missed your question. I was on my way to Portugal for the Port Harvest Tour.
I think you were about right - 10-12 hours is what I would normally tell people for this Port. That gets it "close enough" and then as you saw it can continue to improve a bit in the glass over the course of the evening. Well done!
