1985 Graham Vintage Port
Superb showing as previously. Fresh and youthful, profound, with tame enough spirit after 12 hours in the decanter. Maybe my favorite Graham's, a terrific value, to hold for decades. 95 pts.

I think this is one of the top 1985's, along with the Fonseca. I also prefer this to the '85 Dow's, which tends to show slightly more advanced in age.

I'm with you Andy. I've laid a few of these down for my grandson, and I think he'll be enjoying them many years from now .

This is one of my favourites, I've had it many times as this particular port was one of my first buys many years ago, I've only four bottles left now, but must say the 1986 and 1987 are not bad either

I assume you mean the Malvedos from 86/87. And yes, I agree they are both very niceMonique Heinemans. wrote:This is one of my favourites, I've had it many times as this particular port was one of my first buys many years ago, I've only four bottles left now, but must say the 1986 and 1987 are not bad either
