Another Wednesday Wine Committee for the books, this one in honor of a former WWC member, with the wines donates from his cellar by his family. A wonderful tribute. Wines tasted blind as usual.
Just incredible. I guessed early ‘70s vintage port. So much life ahead. Baked blackberry pie, old graham cracker & cherry liqueur with a finish that hardly ends. Fantastic!

Big birthday night for my dad and I! This was a classic with Stilton. Expressive, aromatic, super long and full of rooty goodness. Purchased on release by my my father.

Incredibly youthful so well-cellared and carefully nurtured throughout it's long bottled life. Fresh, vibrant and still very well balanced with opulent ripe fruit and amazingly balanced alcohol. A real treat.

Wow! I can see this being just as delicious in another 25 years! Mocha, cherries, sweet spices, and violets. Plenty of balanced tannins and a finish that goes on longer than most wines I've tasted. This was a real treat!

1970 vintage, charity dinner, St James's. Pungent after decanting. Developed nicely afterwards. Dry, clean and restrained. Might lack presence and depth.
