We drank this at the end of my 70th with Montecristo No. 4s. I have always believed that Chateau Reynella make the best Vintage Port in Australia having consumed them over many decades going back to the early 1970’s. It threw a huge crust on decanting. Rich dried plum and liquorice notes. A consistency of engine oil - heavy in the mouth with an intensity off the charts. Just brilliant at 40 years old.
