Vintage Port Blend 1970
Wednesday Wine Committee. Great hosting by Gavin. 1 sparkler, 4 whites, 4 reds and 2 dessert wines. All served blind as usual.
Roasted chestnuts, cinnamon, old raspberry fig and a surprising amount of heat on the nose and palate. Shocked the alcohol is that prevalent at this age! Mellowed a bit slightly in the glass, and the added notes of graham cracker and potpourri became noticeable. I called this 40yr port. — 7 years ago
I think I have a bottle of this producer & vintage lying around in one of my EuroCave’s.
@Hugh O'Riordan @David T : This was very enjoyable, but the alcohol was still quite noticeable...in fact, it almost dominated the wine! Not sure time will erase a lot of it, but there was good dark fruits and graham cracker still lingering here.
Omg wow that’s so cool 🇵🇹

I have always enjoyed their cuvées. First time having the Quintette.
The entry is elegant…beautiful fine mousse. Green apples, lime w/ just a touch of zest, lemon pulp, some kiwi & green melon, yellow pear w/ no skin, topical melon, notes of melted caramel, well cooked bread crust, a hint gingerbread, graham crackers, sea spray, understated sea fossils, elegant chalkiness, grey volcanics, dry river stone, yellow & white flowers with fruit blossoms, excellent acidity with soft, gentle structure/tension, elegant finish for that lasts 90 seconds and falls on gentle spice & volcanics.
