Should be fine. Try it, you’ll know it it’s turned.

Got a 10 year old Sandemans in the cupboard that I'm saving for Christmas. Got half a dozen truckles of cheese to go with it too.

Crackers to be purchased soon...

That's ready for drinking and won't improve any further.

I went for a tour of the Sandemans warehouse when I was in Porto in August.

I don't remember much of the afternoon

Aye.. It's a cracking place to visit. Mine was bottled whilst I was visiting too. It had already been maturing for 2 years in the cask.

As Nero says, it's done it's time and ready to be warmed.

I'm really looking forward to it.

For NYE I'm cracking open a bottle of 35 year old Glenmorangie...

I know nothing about these things but a previous neighbour of ours brought a bottle of very expensive port up from his cellar one Christmas night (not as glamorous or posh as it sounds) and it was bloomin delicious!

.

We discovered much later that it was obtained by nefarious means which was probably why it tasted so good

Port (and other vintage beverages) always taste better when they're someone else's....

Port is fortified wine so it’s fine if left unopened OP as long as it’s not stored in light and laid down for the cork. Can last decades like that

If you write to the Governor at HMP Parkhurst then I'm sure he'll help you out.

Is it wrong to want a glass of port now?

My favourite Christmas trunk. And Tawny is delicious.

I spotted a bottle of Dow’s Quinta do Bomfin 2010 vintage port in Asda, an absolute steal at £22.

It will need decanting but that’s half the fun! I’m looking forward to sampling it over Christmas with cheeses and my home made Christmas cake.

I think the label just says name, year and vintage port.

I seem to remember the back label says it can be kept and to lie it on its side, label up and to decant it prior to drinking.

I’m not a port boffin, it’s usually cheap Taylor’s that gets opened and consumed
