Good middle of the road port, nothing to write home about. A bit of alcohol nose and taste. Fine value.

Very well rounded and tasty 10 year tawny. Lacks some depth of flavor available in the 20 years but for the price a great buy.

Great mature floral nose with amazing fruity taste. Very well structured and medium bodied with smooth finish especially as it breathes. Decanted and run through aerating filter. Good french style wine a classis from an established vintner.

1975 Graham Porto Vintage

Port Blend more

12/3/2006 - splashjj wrote: 92 points

Very good vintage port drank for a birthday celebration. Bottle looked well cared for with familiar aging to the label and foil cap. Cork came out mostly whole with only the last 1/4 inch breaking into the bottle. Decanted with paper towel and wire mesh filter and aerating funnel into a port decanter to breath four about two hours. Nose was very common to good vintage port with some black cherry and leather accents. Overall flavor was wonderful with accents again of black cherry, tobacco, earth, and some heat on the finish.
