1960 Vintage Report

Italian: The 1960 Italian vintage is rated as an average vintage. Heavy-weight, longer lived wines from 1960 such as Barolo and Amarone are still drinking well. They still exhibit a good structure and have deep colour with rich intensity.

Bordeaux: The vintage suffered from two rain filled months of August and September. The wines produced were very delicate and light in Bordeaux and only the first growth and Grand Cru wines are now drinkable. The great estates from Sauterns and Barsac produced some good sweet wines in what was a depressed decade for the region.

Port: A very good vintage that was declared by all of the major Port houses. The 1960 Ports have now settled into the most glorious old Vintage Ports of the very highest quality. After more than 40 years bottle-ageing, these wines have a superb combination of lovely mature fruit combined with the elegance that only this length of time in bottle can give. They will last for decades to come.
