1999 Graham’s LBV Port

1999 Graham’s LBV Port

Appearance - Deep garnet core with a ruby‑brick rim. Still impressively youthful for its age, with a glossy, concentrated hue typical of Graham’s richer house style

A warm, enveloping nose with: Black cherry compote, ripe plum, and crushed blackberry. Dark chocolate, cocoa nib, and molasses. Subtle notes of eucalyptus, clove, and sweet baking spice. A hint of dried rose and cigar box emerging with air

Palate - Full‑bodied, velvety, and generous—classic Graham’s richness. Layers of black fruit preserve, fig, and sultana. Secondary tones of toffee, dark cocoa, and warm spice. The tannins have softened beautifully, giving a plush, rounded mouthfeel

Finish - Long, warming, and chocolate‑laden. Echoes of dried black fruit, nutmeg, and a touch of minty lift. A lingering sweetness that feels indulgent but not heavy

Graham’s LBVs are known for being some of the richest and most fruit‑driven in the category. The 1999 vintage produced supple, approachable wines that have aged into a mellow, chocolate‑spiced maturity without losing their core of dark fruit.
