1967 Martinez vintage port
Very light colour, pale pink and clear; 20% opaque. Hot and peppery on the nose. Light bodied, sweet and simple palate although soft chocolate shows through. An acidic orange aftertaste and a good sugary length. This is light bodied and simple drinking, I have had much better bottles of this wine. 80/100. Drunk 27 September 2010.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.
2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
