An informal pre-Christmas tasting of ports with the theme "A bottle of port which cost you less than £25", as suggested by winesecretary and organised (with plenty of help from others) by richn.
Plum fruits on the nose, quite sweet. Wonderful fruits led by the plum but with red fruits and chocolate. Enjoyable tannic structure. Excellent, my wine of the night.
70% opaque, purple still rather than red. But, rich red fruits on the palate. Very good. A exemplar of how good this somewhat variable port can be when it is on form.
