Last nite tasting at my house 05 Burgundy-dessert-1970 & 1977 Graham-sorry no notes-but the 70 blew

out the 77.

Tonite a 2007 CDT after I wanted a port-Only the one I found was a 1963 Graham-pop & poured.

Nose: Deep-age-young

Body: full-very full

Taste: very young-youngest of the 3 Grahams by far

Aftertaste: long

19+/20

Oh cr-- I think I opened a friend's bottle he bought in the late 60's or early 70's-One I was saving.

It needs 20 years-recent 63's are variable-this is a very great port!

I loved the 70 last nite but this blows it away.

What a great 24 hours.

'63 Graham's is a pretty special bottle and one which is holding up very well.

while the 1977 has come around a little, which some of its excessive heat lessening, it still pales in comparison to a well showing 1970. A nice line up!

Sad news Andy the 2nd day it slipped. But it was fantastic the first day.

I have posted on this wine proabably more than any other on this board. Execpt for one leaky cokred bottle, it is always consistent. One of my all time favorites.
