Decanted for 10 hours. Ripe, spicy fruit. Cherry/fruitcake flavors with a wonderful mouthfeel. Complex and extremely well balanced. No overt "spirity" quality. Luscious and long. Seems like it could still improve. (94)

Spot on note! Had this a few weeks ago and it still is a solid VP. I need to find more

Agreed! This one hasn't peaked quite yet... but getting close.

One of the top 70's vintages.

Moses,
Did you mean "vintages" or "bottlings" in your quote?
I really love the 1970 Graham's and believe it is by far the best Graham's VP between 1963 and 1985 an a pretty solid string of vintage efforts.

One of the bottlings of the vintage. Fonseca, Taylor, and Kopke would be on that list too.
