1945 Croft

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Darker than the Fonseca Guimaraens 1942 drunk alongside this bottle, this being a warm honey colour. Sweet treacle on the nose and a much sweeter palate than the FG42. Sadly somewhat oxidised but still a decent palate presence. 84/100. Drunk 19-Jun-17. Decanted 1 hour.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
