Does anyone know what it means if your glass of port has bits in it . . .?

[Cadders]

and does it mean I can't drink it?

come on chaps - is it safe to drink or not?

maybe means a tea strainer is called for! what sort of bits?

well they sort of look like chinese tea leaves

I think it means you should be drinking something nicer

Its just the crust (sediment) - perfectly safe to drink - enjoy!

isnt it supposed to have bits in?

Dps dad has this contraption ( like a tea strainer) that takes it out

It means you've either not bothered to decant it, or you've poured it out too quickly, or you've got the dregs of the bottle. It's perfectly safe to drink though

Something nicer - it's all I've got to hand at the mo . IItwas a minature bottle of someone or other's LBV. Scraping the bottom of the barrel here

I think it means it's been shaken about and the sediment has been disbursed. I don't think it'll do you any harm, but I believe it makes it taste a bit bitter.

is it corked?

thanks for your advice chaps. Drink it I will
