"Old and new, with a sweet and sour nose with nuts and fruitcake. Full-bodied, with pretty sweet and ripe fruit, with a candied fruit and toffee character on the finish and just a hint of nuts."

"Fresh nose combines black and red fruits. Intensely flavored and moderately sweet; the color of ruby but shows a tawny port-like smoothness and pliancy in the mouth. Wears its alcohol gracefully. Finishes slightly dry, with hints of almond and hazelnut. Showed a dill note with aeration." Reviewed by Stephen Tanzer.

"Intense and deep ruby color. On the nose, rich perfumed, packed with red and black fruits. Sweet and bursting of flavors of black berries and black currants balanced by firm tannins. Long and lingering velvety smooth finish."

"Graham's 1991 Vintage Port gets my nod as the port of the vintage. While keeping in mind that Graham's aims for a sweeter-styled port, there is no doubting the opaque purple/black color, or the explosive nose of black fruits, licorice, spring flowers, and tar. Thick and full-bodied, with a satiny texture and a blockbuster, alcoholic finish, this is a top-notch vintage port."
