Had NYE and it’s drinking beautifully, buttery caramel plums, maybe raspberries, cinnamon spice, nice finish. Seems to have matured into a beautiful port.

bought it from the producer on a small market in Oporto 1998. The first impression when i got the cork off, was nose of burnt smokey wood and harbor. for 2 hours it was an interesting expirence. sweet as liquid vinegum on the tongue and then a development in my mouth with nuts, raisins, chocolate and wooden box. In the aftertaste a little acetone wich comes in very subtle and pleasant, leaving you wanting more. Over the top, yes, but still very love-able.

Corked, decent wine underneath, but just corked enough to be ruined.

An interesting assortment with Luger's steaks (Columbus, OH): From 375mL.
Just sipped on a bit. Lighter-style and ready to go. Red fruits and anise notes. Some nail-polish. Enjoyable.
