1967 Dalva Colheita

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

The Rui Paula blend. Light orange in colour, 10% opaque. Harmonious nose, full of barley sugar. Strong acidity, with a beautiful texture and intense orange flavours. Big on the finish, with a touch of heat and huge length. 93/100. Drunk 16 October 2011.
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!
