This was surprisingly drinkable for such a young port, but that may have been more to do with the fact it was the 19th glass of the night

It was extremely generous of the Symingtons to allow us to taste this sample but I'm afraid my palate was beyond the point of doing it justice by this point in the evening. I look forward to tasting the final blend in the not too distant future.

Tasted here on 23rd February 2010.

Thank you for posting these notes. It's not often you get so see such complete verticals on Port. :thumbsup:

Sometimes I just like to make these kind of sacrifices for the team :salute: :wink:

It's a rough job, but somebody's gotta do it!
