1983 Real Vinicola Vintage Port

Decant: 12 hours - From a black tasting glass. VA dominates the faint nose, unappetising over-ripe dates and bottle stink. Light weight body, tannins dominate the orange extract flavour but never overcome the VA flavours. Muddy birch dominates the flavour. Heat dominates the aftertaste. Lingering aftertaste of orange and barley sugar. Not very nice, but drinkable in an emergency. 68 points
