    Review:Wow, what a great LBV! Nice aftertaste and even after 1 week after opening, the LBV was still good, incredible!

    It was almost as good as the 1983 LBV!

    Notes:I had the same surprise with a 1987 Morgado available through Trader Joe's at under $15.

    Notes:I picked up a bottle of Tuke '87 last year, and got the suprise of my life. This wine acTually has the characteristics of a decent Dow's Vintage! I have since bought a couple more bottles and keep them on my Port shelf for the times that you want to open a Vintage, but are too afraid that the occasion doesn't warrant it.
