Campbells The Sixties Block
VINTAGE PORT
We are fortunate to have access to a number of traditional Portuguese port varieties planted in our ‘Sixties Block’. These varieties have formed the foundation of our Vintage Port, to which we added small amounts of Shiraz and Durif. The result is an aromatic, relatively elegant Vintage Port, with mouth fill- ing fruit flavor, and a great capacity to age in bottle. In recent times, due to the popularity of our Sixties Block blend, our Portugese port varieties have been allocated to The Sixties Block blend. Hence our Vintage Port production has ceased.
Grapes from our original Sixities Block including Carignan, Souzao, Tinta Madeira, Tinta Amarella, Tinta Cao, Xeres, Cornifesto, Caracosa, Merlot & Royalty. And a smaller portion of grapes from our newly planted varietal block including Souzao, Tinta Cao, Tinta Amarella, Touriga Nationale, Mourvedre
