Wine Spectator Review
Rated 96
This may be one of the most underrated '63s made. Its deep red color gives little indication of the wine's age, and there is an abundance of youthful, rich fruit on the nose and palate. Full tannins and an assertive finish back up everything. Will still improve with age.
Wine Tasting Notes
The 1963 Sandeman Vintage Port exhibits a rich and deep color that is nearly impenetrable. Its aroma is wonderfully intricate, showcasing a blend of spicy nuances, including curry, pepper, and ginger, alongside the enticing scents of red berries and black fruits. The wine also possesses a delicate hint of cacao, which adds to its allure. The finish is slightly stony, a testament to its well-aged nature. On the palate, this port is intense and complex, with a vibrant acidity that enlivens the senses. The tannins are firm and well-defined, contributing to its structure, while the finish is remarkably long and the concentration is truly impressive.
