2016 Graham`s Vintage Port
Secondary Description
Dark, brambly fruit on the nose; there`s incense, spice and dried fruit on the palate attack. It has a warm, baked fruit character but doesn`t taste alcoholic. It`s quite sweet at this stage with very fine tannins though it is well structured. Dry tannins show on the finish and at the moment the finish shows more of the dried fruit than the perfume.

The small production of Graham’s 2016 Vintage bottling consists of 6,325 9-litre cases, including 600 magnums and 352 Tappit Hens. Bottled in June 2018.Extremely deep purplish crimson. Wonderfully pure nose – so direct and intense. Long and schistous somehow. Very fresh fruit quality. Almost like a mouthwash, it’s so pure and brisk. Linear. 18.5 points
