1979 W & J Graham's Late Bottled Vintage Port

1979 Graham’s Late Bottled Vintage Port is a fully mature, elegant, and surprisingly refined older LBV, showing dried‑fruit sweetness, floral lift, and a gentle, mellow palate.

Appearance - Slightly hazy pomegranate colour with an evolved maroon hue. Reflects long bottle age and gentle oxidation

Nose - Sweet, evolved aromatics. Dried dates and figs. Raisined dark fruit. Spirituous lift. Dried flowers adding a fragrant, old‑school charm

Palate - Light‑to‑medium body, very much in the mature LBV style. Soft, mellow texture with age‑softened tannins. Dried fruit, gentle sweetness, and a touch of warmth. Elegant rather than powerful, with a calm, resolved structure

A fully evolved, delicate LBV from a period when LBVs were often bottled unfiltered and built for ageingShows graceful maturity, closer in feel to an old Single Quinta than to modern fruit‑driven LBVs
