1963 Cockburn

[jdaw1]

To commemorate Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II exceeding the late Queen Victoria’s record time on the throne, a select band of us, some subjects of Her Majesty, some not so blessed, gathered in the Boot & Flogger to drink ‘Port Fit for a Queen’. We did well.

Ck63. red, 30% opaque. Palate had lots of red cherry, a hint of—perhaps a remnant of—unctuousness, and some mid-palate sharp heat. I preferred this to the T63, but of the two JADS preferred the other.
