Hi Mac,

1985 and 1991 are regular Graham Ports, not Graham's Malvedos.

1985 is also a regular Fonseca Port, not a Fonseca Guimaraens.

If your bottles' labels say otherwise, they are likely fake. But I'm guessing you just copied & pasted and ended up with the wrong names.

Coincidentally, I just had a 1989 Burmester Colheita on Saturday night! It's a nice Port - I scored it 91 points.
