1977 Warre's Vintage Port

Post by Robert O. »

Everyone here on FTLOP seems to be drinking this right now so I thought, what the hell, why not break my one bottle open?

Slight signs of seepage. Cork fell into the bottle.

+4 hours decanting -- incredibly smooth with little heat, fruit, wood and cocoa.

While not super complex, absolutely delicious and a good example of why I like vintage port. This example, at least, does not seem to be headed to tawny anytime soon. I think this port has years ahead of it but I don't think it has the backbone to improve much.

I give it a 93/100

Over many years of enjoying this Port my scores have always been in the 91-93 range. It will be interesting to hear how the wine showed with more time for you Robert.
