Note di degustazione
Light bricky red. Mint and eucalyptus and still a note of bitter orange. Silky tannins with some barley-sugar on the finish and terrific freshness. Silky but dry, ultra-fine tannins and all in remarkable and perfect balance at this age. Wonderfully energetic. (JH)

This was made from field blends at a time when there was no electricity in the quintas. Transparent garnet. Wonderfully delicate. Subtle and so fresh. A jewel of a vintage port that is only just starting to fall apart. (JR)
Tasted blind. Fair depth of tawny colour. Meaty, spicy and a little spirity, with smoky, dark chocolate. Molasses, dark chocolate and plum pudding on the palate, with lots of weight and depth. Just a touch of heat on the finish. Long though. (TJ)
An iconic vintage which symbolised the renaissance of vintage port following the aftermath of the Second World War. Just over 500 bottles are now left in the Graham’s lodge apparently. Pale ruby. Haunting and again, so direct and transparent. Gorgeous, ethereal, light, heady and lifted. Jewel of a wine. Long and powerful, although over time in the glass it became a little spirity – as well it might at 55 years old. (JR)
