1970 Cockburn

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Very fine sediment in the rose-red wine, 40% opaque in the glass. Coffee on the nose and a touch on the palate, a palate which brings bitter cranberry fruit. The cranberry also dominates the finish. Not a good bottle. 85/100. Tasted 25-Jul-22. Decanted 11½ hours.

Link back to the review thread.
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!
