Smells like freshly picked orchids, with loads of ripe, clean fruit. Full-bodied, medium sweet and very powerful and racy. It lasts for minutes on your palate. Yet there's a balance and class to this young Vintage Port. This is the greatest glass of Graham I have ever tasted, young or old... Wine Spectator

Deep Ruby with pronounced aromas of berry fruits, spice and floral notes. On the palate flavors of plum, licorice and blackberry flavors, well balanced with lively acidity, full-bodied, big and well structured. Long finish, smooth tannins ending with cacao and rich sweet fruit tones. Very nice! Drinking well now!

Dark Ruby with aromas of ripe fruit structure, sweet and luxurious, still is a big port but with finesse. On the palate flavors of ripe cherry, currants and jammy tones, well balanced. Fine tannins, long and elegant finish ending with rich fruit and nutty character. Will still continue to age. Tasting Sample.

Absolutely wonderful, incredibly rich and unfiltered. Dark cherry and blackberry reduction, raisin, graphite mineral notes, licorice, nutmeg. What a treat

The 2000 Vintage Port was drinking so well, starting to step into maturity with some tertiary fruit notes and a structure that has started to mellow. Savory and fresh dark red cherry, cassis and plum, a touch of sweet mocha. The nose is very pronounced and seductive, inviting you to sip and seek it's pleasures. The palate is perfectly balanced, good density, balanced, still present but refined and polished tannin, and a long and luxurious finish that lasts for many minutes. Maybe the best Port of the trip...bought a few back here after I got back. So should you! #grahams

Excellent balance, starting to relent with age with deeper complexity, beautiful to smell and taste in the glass. Gives credence to my preference for age on a VP.

Still quite young. Give another 5-10 years.
