Decanting a vintage port wine

(1/2) > >>

chin:
This is my second time decanting a vintage port. The last one was a 1985 Warre and it was very easy.

This one is Fonseca 1977. I only very recently read up on vintage port. The washed off white paint at the back was to indicate "this side up" during cellar time. So the sediments all collected at the other side.

I had this at home for a few weeks, and I had stood up the bottle during the whole period.

chin:
With the lead(?) sealing, and without. The cork is sealed with another label.

What's on the label?

chin:
The cork was not in good shape. About 1/4 remained inside. I just pushed the rest into the bottle, then pour out the port with a very fine tea filter.

chin:
It took more than 30 min from start to finish.

chin:
Compare the cork from the 1985 Warre.
