1967 Cockburn
Re: 1967 Cockburn
Ck67, decanted 13:00 (an extra from CMAG’s collection — thank you).
Pink, 30% opaque. Not a perfect Ck67 — this being thin, dominated by heat, with artificial sweetener.

Re: 1967 Cockburn
Written from memory the day after the tasting as my notes have been lost. I recall this showed very well and got better with more time in the glass. Dense fruit with wonderful secondary tones, this was a delicious Port to drink and compared well with the Warre 1966 and Fonseca 1966 on the night. Very tasty.
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!
