1979 Graham’s Malvedos Vintage Port:
From two separate 375ml bottles. A light ruby that showed a bit advanced for its age. The nose on this smelled very pruny and almost sickly sweet stewed fruit. The palate also had lots of stewed fruit on a thin and hot body. This wasn’t pleasant at all and I scored it 81 points. However, the second bottle was quite different with its strong tannins, cherries, licorice, and menthol. 86 Points
