Delicious; just delicious.
Mature claret, just the way it should be when it’s 40 years old.

1983 Chateau Beychevelle
Top Ports in 2022: Quinta do Noval Nacional 1931. I have never drunk such a wonderful bottle of Port. I cried with joy.
2023: Fonseca 1966. There are not many better Ports, except a good bottle of Fonseca 1927. Wow!

They were on a roll at that point. The 1982, drunk ten years ago, was one of the best bottle of claret I’d ever had.
