Description
Gould Campbell 1977 Vintage Port is an exceptional release, awarded 19 points by Jancis Robinson. This vintage showcases a deep, layered blackish crimson color that intrigues with its fragrant yet mysterious bouquet. Robinson highlights its excellent structure, noting that the tannins are initially subtle but reveal significant depth upon further tasting. The wine is just beginning to emerge into drinkability, offering a glorious experience as it matures. While a slight woodiness is detected on the nose upon re-tasting, the overall impression remains sophisticated and full of potential. This vintage is perfect for drinking now, promising complexity and finesse as it continues to evolve beautifully.

Excellent deep but layered blackish crimson. Fragrant but mysterious. Very well constituted. Glorious stuff with tannins only just discernible underneath initially. Just emerging to drinkability but tasting revealed absolutely masses of tannin underneath. My first impression was that I would like to have this in my cellar. On re-tasting I discerned a very slight woodiness on the nose. (JR)
