1963 Ferreira vintage port

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Lovely sweet starwberry jam on the nose, with some freash sage or basil aromatics. Sweet ont the tongue, gentle and fruity - perhaps a bit flabby but with some tannins still supporting the flavours. Pleasant and elegant. Good fruit based aftertaste, good volume and nice length. 88/100. Drunk 26 May 2010 after 2.5 hours decanting.
Top Ports in 2022: Quinta do Noval Nacional 1931. I have never drunk such a wonderful bottle of Port. I cried with joy.

2023: Fonseca 1966. There are not many better Ports, except a good bottle of Fonseca 1927. Wow!
