A lovely pale pink.
Super, lightweight port. Pretty cranberry scented almond essence stuff. Acidity a bit prominent.
This is ravishing port in the lighter vein. Pop and decant and pour and enjoy.

But what was this George?
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

Updated to include shipper. It might not have been in the first five bottles opened that evening.

As above...
Fairly light, but drinking beautifully. Really doesn't need any decanting time. Not going to last forever, but no rush to finish these up.

Re: 1967 Cockburn
I like Ck67; it's a gentle and enjoyable softer port rather than powerhouse, and often found at quite reasonable prices.
I haven't seen another bottle of the "Joanna" bottling of Ck67 for a while now.
