Anything but Port, this includes all wines other than fortified wines (which have their own section) even if they call themselves Port. There is a search facility for this part of the forum.

1983 Chateau Talbot

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

The fifth of the six bottles I took as my share of a case bought from Fine & Rare with Rob Coombes. Exquisite; ripe and mature on the nose and palate with a fabulous elegance and perfect point of maturity. A wonderful mature claret. 92/100. Drunk at the Sailoft in Looe on 24 March 2016.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
