It has a rich and solid purple colour; on the nose, a combination of wild lavender and concentrated blackberries, broad shouldered and complex on the palate with a meaty structure and lingering tannin; a classic Vintage Port to put away in the cellar for many years.
One of that generation's spiritual fathers is Johnny Graham, of Churchill's Estates, whose family's roots in the Port trade date to 1820.... I rated his latest effort, the 2011 Vintage Port, 96 points, non-blind. It is intense and concentrated, with plenty of grip to the dark fruit flavors.
This is very floral and fruity with dark cherries and wild berries. Full body, lightly sweet with lots of fruit and a firm tannic backbone. Serious grip or finish to this young Port. This seems to be a remake of the outstanding 1994. 6,000 cases produced of this foot-trodden wine. Try in 202
