Had a few bottles with Lamont, Harrington, and Elaine
Kopke 20 year tawny
Reddish brown in color. Open nose of caramel, dough, and orange peel, and dried fruits. Well concentrated on the palate, full dried fruits, caramel, and mild nuttiness. Long finish defines the wine. Excellent 20 year tawny - 94 points
Krohn 1964 white colheita
Translucent orange in color. Dried papaya and toffee on the nose with hints of buttered pecan. Very sweet after a shot chill, not hot at all, candied fruit, vanilla, and baking spices on the palate. Finish is long and satisfying.
Graham's 1963 Vintage
Light purple/red and crisp in color with bright rim. Ripe strawberry and raspberry jam on the nose, sweet and open with some spirit. Full open lush red fruit on the palate with soft tannins. A touch of leather and brandied cherries complete the flavor profile; finish is long and fruity. Excellent wine, drinking very well now.
