Description
This review is from Graham’s Port website as we have not been lucky enough to taste this vintage ourselves!
“Graham’s 1980 Vintage Port has Graham’s typically rich, concentrated fruit, and strong underlying grip, the result of firm tannins. This well-structured Vintage was initially unfairly underrated but it has since established its great worth. It is a beautifully balanced wine with a long future ahead of it. The Graham’s 1980 stands amongst the finest wines of the Vintage.
“A Greatness Only Recognised Years After the Declaration”
A generally declared year, like the ’66, the 1980 vintage only became recognised for its real star quality years after the declaration. It was also overshadowed by the 1977, and as a result a real bargain at auction. Notable for their strong colour, the best 1980 Vintage Ports have a depth and structure that places them amongst the finest Vintage Ports of the post-war era.
