(Wineapalooza With Friends.) A marvel, really. Was never cellared during its three decades in bottle. Yet, except for slight bricking, this was in excellent shape following closet storage. A fairly simple Port, as the tasting notes from others reflect. But a tasty partner to blue cheese and walnuts, and a good close to our tasting. Drink now.

Perfect winter night for a glass of 30 year old, 1994 Vintage Port in front of a fire. It’s not the best port but for 30 years it has aged well and is still bright, not oxidized, and has plum fruit notes

This was a nice pairing with chocolate cake dessert, silky smooth, superbly balanced, ripe sweet fruits for wonderful casual sipping.
At 28 years, this showed no signs of diminution from aging whatsoever, likely at the peak of its drinking window, but with another decade or two of life left yet. The label, fill level, foil, seal and cork were all in pristine condition. sea

Not complex. It doesn’t have the acid or complexity to make it rate higher. Disappointing, as I’d hoped this would have been better..

Still drinking well. Opened and drank over a number of weeks and it held up.
