1977 Cockburn's Vintage Port

1977 VP : spirity nose, light but a very great sweetness that seems to me to characterise the '77s. Better than Warres but not as good as Grahams (both of which I have tried in the last month). NB The observant amongst you will have remembered that Cockburn did not declare a vintage in 1977; none-the-less they did make some - I do wonder how often this happens and what happens to the 'Not the 19XX vintage' wines that are made but not declared.
