NY Halloween Treat Tasting

Post by SushiNorth »

Everyone's brought a bottle to our tasting at Square Meal, October 30, 2009. Each bottle was intended to represent a decade in Port.

Indeed ... a fine evening with great company and great wines! I kinda like the '70 Sandeman and 85 Croft. All the wines paired nicely with my Square Meal burger and duck! I thought my banana bread pudding made the '63 Martinez thin and spirity.

I love the theme and may borrow that one for some time in the future - one wine per decade; excellent thought.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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

A fun little tasting, my inability to differentiate fruits suggest i'm not drinking port regularly enough. something i'll need to correct.

Top of the class per generation,

that would make for a very interseting tasting.
