Small x3 Vintage Port Tasting: Creamy butterscotch, walnuts and touch of orange. Very expressive and intense long aftertaste. Absolutely stunning wine! This is just an absolutely stunning and complete glass of wine. Perfectly aged and it is certainly at its peak right now!

By the glass. Still a spicy nose and dried lavender herbs. On the palate ending with a bitter chocolate aftertaste. Representative that offers a brittle balance, a certain sweetness, excessive maturity and an aristocratic decadence rather than a firm precision. This bottle has certainly been through better days.
Por copas. Todavía una nariz especiada y de hierbas de lavanda secas. En boca terminando con un retrogusto de chocolate amargo. Representante que ofrece un quebradizo equilibrio, cierta dulzura, excesiva madurez y una decadencia aristocrática antes que una firme precisión. Esta botella ha pasado por días mejores sin duda.

After 60 years the port was still fruity and delicious. Slight brandy notes but otherwise really well balanced with just a hint of velvet tannin. Wonderful 60th birthday prsent

From two different bottlings, one Quinta bottling and a Army & Navy Bottling, this showed quite well. Surpisingly similar, the two were not too sweet, delicate red berries, some floral notes and candied sugar.

Amazing. Still masses of rich flavours and no sense of rancio
