1963 Croft

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Croft 1963, bottled by an unknown UK bottler. Lovely savoury nose with juniper and blackthorn underneath. Savoury fruit on the palate, deep and rich, full of black cherry. Big, young black cherry aftertaste leading to a sticky black cherry finish. Wonderful Port. Such depth of sweet fruit. Fabulous. 95/100. Drunk 03-Mar-23.
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!
