Score 17.5/20 · Drink 2011-2023, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2004

Deep crimson. Thick, sweet and concentrated. Round and full and unctuous. Lots of macerated prunes and confidence. Lively and dense with real richness but a correct structure. Some floral notes and some dry tannins on the finish. Not quite married but a definite tea flavour. Dry finish. (JR)

Score 18.5/20 · Drink 2015-2030, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2002

Deep, blackish crimson. Intriguing, complex liquorice density on the nose, and massive sweetness and tannins. Vibrant. (JR)

Blackberries, licorice, and melted asphalt stand out in this full-bodied, beautifully made vintage port's moderately intense bouquet. It is not one of the great Graham's ports, and is less sweet than normal, but it is full-bodied, rich, concentrated, and impressive. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2025. Importer: Premium Ports and Maderias, Sausalito, CA; tel. (415) 331-7675
