RP82, from JDF, despite absence — thank you. Black, 98% opaque. Dark fruit, but bagaesque hollowness.

Dark as anything here. Fine rich port with dark fruit but barely ready. I liked it. Is this, possibly, the best 1982 port?

It's the only 1982 Port that I have tried to date (I have a few others in the cellar), but I can't see anything coming close to this Port. It's very, very good.
