For The Love Of Port

1995 Churchill's Quinta da Agua Alta. Once I started decanting the bottle I knew it was overly oxidized and smelled it. The nose was off-putting--earthy and sharp. It tasted okay and was drinkable. A slightly sweet finish with touches of burnt sugar. Given bottle conditions it should not be scored officially (everyone had it last), nonetheless I had 82 Points, Group 82.0
