1994 Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port
Decanted 8 hours. This was my first bottle of VP. Enjoyed it but was expecting a lusher experience. The ending of it wasnt v smooth, tasting a bit off.

This vp has gone into a awkward phase in the past couple years. I've stopped opening them and will wait another 5 or so years, or until it comes out of that phase, before opening any of mine again.

Agreed. The wine has closed up. Not totally closed, but given how it has shown in the past it's a bit dumb. I am also not opening these. My expletive is that right now, day 3 is best.
