1980 Vintage Report
Italian: A very good year. The wines from 1980, are generally quite consistent and there are some great Barolo wines from Piedmont. The wines have reached full maturity but will last for a few more years.
Bordeaux: A very wet, cool, year resulted in a mediocre vintage. The wines are generally characterised by being light and diluted. Nevertheless some producers who operated a strict selection policy still managed to produce some acceptable wines.
Port: An outstanding generally declared vintage from a hugely underrated year. The the good port wines are outstanding. This vintage is ready now but will continue to develop and keep for decades.
1980 Sandeman, 1980
Vintage Port
Description: “Due to the richness in colour intense fruit flavour and its impressive finish, Sandeman 1980 promises to be a wine of considerable character when mature. The 1980 should as was the 1960, be at maturity sooner rather than later” (David Sandeman).

Taylor's Vintage Port, 1980
Vintage Port
Description: An outstanding wine scoring 91 points. Review: "A deep, clear garnet colour. The nose is very backward, quite austere and conservative with notes of cherry and raspberry leaf, a touch of cigar box developing with aeration. It perhaps lacks a little joie-de-vivre, especially when compared to vintage in the 1970s. the palate is attractive though, with notes of raspberry, plum, white pepper, blood orange and a touch of apricot. Very good acidity, perhaps like the -55, this is a Taylor's playing it safe, unwilling to take chances and yet it is lush on the finish with its plum and briary flavours." Neil MArtin Wine Journal 2008. Rating 91/100 (Wine Journal) Just starting to drink now.
