I almost feel guilty posting this, as the opportunity to taste such an extraordinary wine comes so rarely. Deep and rich, with amazing balance for a young Port. Years to go -

Oct 28th, 2016One of the rarest ports in the world. A pleasure to taste this flight. In terms of sheer awesomeness the 63 beat them all, but that 31 was a timepiece.
