1982 Graham’s Malvedos Vintage Port:
Another bottle where I was amazed at how dark ruby this was. An interesting and soft nose full of cranberries, tea leafs, and pine resin. Quite the complex nose compared to some of the other vintages. An amazing amount of spicy up-front fruit assails the palate and really made me sit up and take notice. Still such an incredibly youthful Port that doesn’t stop giving. Along with the 1982 Niepoort VP, this is one of the best I’ve had from this rarely talked about vintage. I’ve never seen this for sale, but I would love to buy some if I could find it. Michael Symington wrote in August 1982, “…Prospect excellent” and he was right! 94 Points
