1995 Graham’s Quinta dos Malvedos Vintage Port

1995 Graham’s Malvedos Vintage Port:
From a 375ml bottle. The color was about the same as the 1992. Something wasn’t right as the nose smelled cooked and the palate was very hot, lacking fruit and seemed very off. Paul also commented there was something not right about this bottle. N/R

Andy,sorry to hear it. I have some that I haven't tried in a while. The last one was in June 2009 when it had a great nose plum and rose, with sweet berry flavors and plenty of structure and just showing some beginnings of balance. I was hoping to get an update from your tasting, oh well, it happens. Carry on and thanks for the massive tasting notes.

Sorry about that...and this was one I was looking forward to trying as I can't recall ever having had it before. Oh well, bad bottles happen some times and at least in this case there were plenty of other very good bottles in the tasting :winebath:
