1980 Smith Woodhouse Vintage Port -- blues

Post by Andy Velebil »

So i was all happy to open a 1980 Smith Woodhouse tonight, as its been a week since my last VP and I was getting withdrawls...only find it was very mildly corked :evil: Ohh well, I sucked it up and drank some anyways as it was just barely noticable.

Sorry to hear about the poor luck Andy. The good news is that a bad bottle now may ward away the evil spirits of corkage for your offline in a couple of weeks. :)

Andy,

Sorry to hear about that, I was looking forward to reading about your experience with this particular bottling. Do you have more?
