Powerful and young with roasted fruit and spice. Great intensity and concentration. More restrained on the palate than the nose. Youthful and balanced. #dow #vintageport #port #portugal #ctbucklinwine

Great bottle of 70...distilled fruits and off-sweet layers and perfect after a big dinner.

Maybe not a perfect wine with a bit of oxidation on the nose but still quite drinkable

Lovely at 50 years. Oh my almost as old as I am. Delightful balance of dried fruits and spice with touch of tobacco. A nice lingering finish and just the right amount of sweetness. I don’t drink a lot of 50 year old port - but maybe I should!
