What are you drinking Oct 2010

Post by g-man »

I finally broke my streak of not being able to drink some proper vps

This is the way a wedding should be.

1970 sandeman
1977 dows magnum
1980 Fonseca magnum
1985 Fonseca
1985 Quarles harris
1985 Martinez
2000 infantado
2000 dow magnum
2000 vesuvio
2003 Vesuvio

apologies for the no notes, but the 77 dows was a standout, followed by the always powerful 85 fonseca, wow made the older vintages taste like tawnies.

What a great list.

I have to make do with the 1955 horizontal tonight. 1955 wines from Adam, the Factory House, Fonseca, Ferreira, Noval, Martinez, Gonzalez Byass, Taylor, Graham, Dow, Sandeman, Niepoort, Offley, Mackenzie and two others I can't remember.

Life's tough, but someone's got to do it...
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

2026: DR Very Old White, Graham Stone Terraces 2011, Quevedo Branco 1986 b.2026

Opened one of those Roze's 94 LBVs. it's day 4, burn is still there but flavors are fading. May have to take something else to a gathering tonight.
