1983 Graham's Vintage Port
Posted: Fri Nov 06, 2009 7:14 am
The Grahams...We started drinking this just after opening. I know decanting would have been better, but... when opened it showed as it should and the same as previous bottles I've had. However, after about 2 hours it developed this really really off-puttng nose. We all agreed it was not corked, and I dont think it was bottle stink as it was fine the first couple of hours and after lots of airation in my glass. However, in addition to the bad nose, it lost almost all its fruit on the palate. I tried swirling, etc. and still no change. To bad as I was looking forward to this one. Not rated.
