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.

1961 Chateau la Gaffaliere-Nandes

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep red with a slight hint of brown on the rim. A little closed on the nose, showing little other than some dirty black cherry. In the mouth this brings fruit and powerful tannins; brooding and powerful with a perfect level of maturity. Delicious finish. A lovely mature St Emilion claret. 91/100. 16-Dec-15. Decanted 1 hour.

Drunk at Lunch at Otto's on Wednesday 16 December 2015.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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