1980 Graham's Vintage Port

Post by Frederick Blais »

I did open my Graham's 1980 tonight. Uppon decanting there was a strange smell, almost like dead animal :roll: After 3 hours it was gone to give place to some nice flavours of ripe plumms, raisins, dried figs and very tobacco. On the palate, its very smooth, red berries flavour dominate with licorice, plums and alcool macerated cinamon red cherries on the finale which shows interesting after taste of figs and toffey. 16/20

It was an interesting Port but lacking the layers of flavours and the intesity I did get from the same Port at graham's lodge this last fall. I'll revisit it tomorrow.
