1955 Graham

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Level into neck. Bottle opened and stood at 22.30 on 09 May 2021, and double decanted at 07.20 before being drunk at 20.40.

A mature red colour, slightly lighter than the other '55 Vintage Ports drunk on this night. Mature redcurrants on the nose. Gentle texture with sweet fruit holding a lovely fragrance and gentle spice. Lighter than the other two '55 Ports (which were Martinez and Mackenzie). 92/100. Drunk 10-May-21. Decanted 7½ hours.
