1982 Sandeman Vintage Port

[Al B.]

Decant: 7½ hours - 50% opaque, burnt sienna in colour. Burnt rhubarb on the nose, big volume of scent. Sweet rhubarb on the impact - acidic and tart and with lots of burnt sugar. Hollow aftertaste, sweet rhubarb finish that leads to a dry emptiness. A disappointing showing. 80 points
