Plush, ripe and really packed, with a mix of warmed cassis, plum reduction and fig compote notes that just won't quit, all backed by hints of melted red licorice, warmed fruitcake and mulling spice notes. The long finish is fruit-coated but ripples with energy. This is really taking its time to come around fully as it remains one of the wines of the vintage. -- Blind 2000 Vintage Port retrospective (March 2021). Best from 2022 through 2040. 9,000 cases made, 3,500 cases imported.

Grapy, unformed, black raspberry liqueur and licorice-infused cassis notes leap from the glass of this opaque purple-colored wine. Sweet, plush, rich, and accessible, it is a forward, lush, concentrated effort that should drink well for two decades. While not one of Graham's most profound ports, it should evolve rapidly, providing immense crowd appeal.
