Decanting Vintage Port

Vintage port will benefit from spending a few hours in a decanter to allow it to come into a balance. The bottle should be stood upright for a few days to allow sediment to settle. With older bottles the cork may be brittle and crumble. Whilst it is fine to remove broken cork with a sieve, it is fun to open the bottle with port tongs.
