192

Cockburn’s Vintage Port, 1963. One bottle.

This Port is nicely integrated, showing cherry, dark-plum,

baking-spice, subtle choice-truffle, great depth and hints

of fig on the nose and palate and perhaps surprisingly, a

nice verve of acidity to carry the still abundant fruit. Jancis

Robinson 19.5/20 points.

Estimate €100-€150 (£90-£130)
