TN: 1977 Sandeman Vintage Port

Post by Al B. »

Decant: 4 hours - Deep red in colour, but with a surprisingly clear centre. Slightly peppery nose over a sweetened redcurrant core. Lovely impact in the mouth showing terrific fruit on entry. Lovely mid-palate development and terrific complexity, which develops beautifully. A big aftertaste, mouth-filling and generous, with the sweet redcurrants lingering for a long time. This bottle is believed to have come from George Sandeman's father's cellar, he indicated that this was a very good example of the way the wine can show. 92 points
