For The Love Of Port

A Brunheda 20-yr Old Tawny Port that I received from Stewart. I'm going to give it a couple of days to mellow before I do a TN, as right now it's very bright and tart.

Vista Alegre 30 year old Tawny Port

Tonight will be another wood-aged Port.

I am saving a bodacious older VP for later in the week.

A bottle of Noval crusted, bottled in 1965 - absolutely delicious

A bottle of almost 10 year old Warre's "Fine Selected" Port (a Ruby Port). Not bad, but interesting....

Posted: **Thu May 03, 2012 9:31 am**

A 375 of 1983 Smith Woodhouse VP. Also not bad, but interesting ... TN to follow.

Decanting a 1994 Cockburn's today. We shall see.

Just finished a Warres Otima 10 which comes in a convenient 500 mL bottle and opened a Fonseca Bin 27 Reserve.

A half bottle of 1965 Porto Rocha Colheita to celebrate my wife's birthday.

Posted: **Sat May 12, 2012 3:19 pm**

A bottle of Bomfim 1999 - the extra bottle I bought when bargain shopping in the supermarket last night. £20 a bottle - I can't resist a bargain!

1965 Delaforce Colheita and a 1963 Graham's Vintage. Both are unfinished, and now I am off to Hong Kong. I have never let a VP sit around for a week, so it will be interesting to see how it is after 6 days (if my wife doesn't finish it while I am gone). No worries about the Colheita, though. It will be just fine.

Portal 10 Year Tawny. An OKC liquor store had 10-40 Portal, along the 1997 and 2003 Vintages! Figured what the heck and got the 10 year for the hotel. Quite lovely. Tastes older than 10 years!

2002 Broadbent LBV and Rocha 1976 Colheita, which tastes younger than 30 years (bottled 2006), but still delicious.
