1967 Cockburn

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Cockburn 1967. Mature brick red colour, 40% opaque. Red liquorice and garrigue on the nose. Soft flavours on the palate, a little cranberry and some light brown sugar. Good acidity keeping the freshness. Lingering cranberry finish. Elegant and gentle, a lovely mature Port.  89/100. 13-Oct-22. Drunk 12 hours.
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!
