TN: 1970 Graham Vintage Port

[Al B.]

Decant: 12 hours - Clear centre, but a well pigmented mature looking wine and lighter than the '66 shown alongside. A dusty nose that opened up as it sat in the glass and was at its best 3-4 hours after the tasting started when it was soft, full of cinnamon and a fabulous fruitcake. Assertive entry, dense and concentrated; still very young but the tannins are nicely subdued by the fruit on the palate. Big and mouthfilling, sweet and very fruity. The aftertaste is sweet, initially hot and very big. One to tuck away with the '66s. My wine of the night. 95/100. 95 points
