Druken Sunday Night

We were drinking like champs on a snowy Sunday night. Was more effort than the Steelers had to do get through this line up!

For Port (only one pictured) we drank:

1970 Fonseca – incredible as expected
1970 Royal Oporto – easy drinking, simple yet a good
1955 Taylor – often overlooked, and underrated. Buy if you can find.
1942 Russian “Port” – Fruity and not bad
Date Unknown – Borges Tawny Port – Probably from the 50’s.

Dry Wine:
1947 Nuit St. George – bottle was a little past…
1952 Mouton – incredible, great showing.
1808 Malmsey – off tasting, like shellac and dried fruit
1860 “Pata de Gallina” Dry Sherry – still holding up. Not much experience with sherry this old.

Needless to say, this was a lot of booze for 3 people to drink. Was feeling it the next day! Did not kill the sherry or Borges.
