Tasting Notes

This is an extraordinary house that seems to have been particularly successful with its vintage port since 1977.The 1963 is a classic, a monumental, rich, still tannic wine that will last at least another 30 years

Robert Parker, Wine Buyers Guide (2), January 1989

Incredibly youthfull and powerful, slightly raw still. Medium ruby with a red edge, concentrated black cherry and earth aromas, full-bodied, with intense berry flavors, full hard tannins and an excellent finish. Drink 1990-1992.
