Colheita Port
Single Harvest Tawny Port
Bottled in 1979

The Messias colheita port from the excellent 1970 vintage has been aged in a barrel.

The extended barrel aging has given this wine a complex fusion of dried fruit and cedar notes. On the palate the wine is smooth and full bodies with plenty nuts and sweet fruit on the palate, fine balance. A tremendous finish which goes on forever. There's no question about the quality on display here.

Vintage Port

From the excellent 1970 vintage, the Calem has a dense, even, opaque crimson colour, with a very rich, dark well of black fruit and floral aromas, with all sorts of mineral and delicately spicy nuances. On the palate this has a beautifully focused sweetness, with a supple, svelte quality of black fruits, that is pure and very long and silky through the mid palate. There are fine chocolaty tannins adding plush depth, and the spirit is nicely integrated. This wine has lovely balance too, with excellent length, emphasising the harmony and structure of the wine.

Bekaar Valley, Lebanon, Gaston Hochar
Very top shoulder 73 cl bottle

A rare bottle of 1970 Chateau Musar.
Notes from Chateau Musar: Mistakenly, the most Bordeaux wine I ever made. This was unintentional. I was trying to reflect Lebanon in all its guises, all its
aspects. It had more Cabernet Sauvignon than any wine I’ve ever made, but this was when I could play as I wanted - there were no
rules to command me, so I just blended according to my palate – Serge Hochar

Tasting Notes
Dark shaded ruby; this is just the sort of colour I would expect from a 1970 red Bordeaux. Light, very Cabernet nose. If I were given
this blind I would be extremely tempted to head straight for Bordeaux, though it would have to be a comely château such as Palmer
perhaps, and a fairly ripe vintage. …

Patriarche Pere & Fils

The red wines of Chateauneuf-du-Pape blossom and reach their prime between their third and fifth year, but their potential for aging is over ten years and more according to the vintage and storage conditions. Their color changes from intense garnet-purple in the early years to ruby after some cellaring. These wines are structured, with powerful and complex aromas of ripe fruit, mushrooms, truffles, underbrush, spicy notes, and wild animals.

Cockburn, 1970
Vintage Port

The legendary 1970 vintage is widely regarded as one of Cockburn’s last great “classic” productions before stylistic changes later in the decade. Now over half a century old, it shows the remarkable longevity and depth that made Cockburn a benchmark house for robust, fruit-driven Vintage Port with a distinctive wild-berry character. Time has softened the once-powerful structure, replacing youthful muscle with refinement, harmony, and aromatic complexity.

In the glass, the wine displays a deep tawny-garnet core with a lifted, mature nose of fig, cedar, rose oil, dried cherry, and warm spices. …

Coronas Gran Reserva, Catalonia

The 1970 Torres Gran Coronas Gran Reserva, also known as the “Black Label,” is a landmark Spanish wine that helped redefine the potential of Cabernet Sauvignon in Spain. Produced in the Penedès region by Miguel A. Torres, this vintage was pivotal in establishing Spain’s international reputation for fine red wines.

Composed of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Tempranillo, and 10% Monastrell, the 1970 vintage was the first to carry the Black Label designation. The grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks—a pioneering move in Spain at the time—and aged for six months in new American oak followed by a year in older barrels. …

Vintage Port
Plain label

Gould Campbell Vintage Port 1970 is a bit of a hidden gem among vintage Ports. While Gould Campbell may not be as widely known as the likes of Taylor, Graham, or Dow, it has long enjoyed a loyal following for producing traditionally styled, full-bodied Ports with excellent ageing potential — and the 1970 vintage is no exception.

The 1970 vintage overall is considered a landmark year, producing Ports with great concentration, structure, and longevity. Gould Campbell’s 1970 fits this profile well, typically offering a deep ruby-garnet color that has softened with age. On the nose, expect rich aromas of dark cherries, raisins, dried figs, tobacco, and warm spices like clove and cinnamon. …

Vintage Port
Damaged Berry Bros. and Rudd Label

The 1970 Quinta do Noval remains a young, unevolved Port, graceful, youthful, and complex. The huge nose of liquorice, smoke, jammy black-cherry and cassis fruit is followed by a wine of seamless components, all super-packed with gorgeously pure fruit, yet the wine is not heavy or overbearing. There is a real sense of elegance to this Quinta do Noval.

This Port has reached full maturity and remain there until 2030

Vintage Port

Robertson Bros were the shippers behind this brand, which was once one of the most reputable, though, since a fine 1970, very little Vintage Port bears the name.

**92 points Wine Spectator**

Drink it alone for dessert. It is like a delicious piece of fruitcake. Medium red, with a roasted, chocolate, earthy nose, medium-bodied, with plenty of tannins and roasted, fruity flavours on the palate. Will improve. (1989)

1er Cru Classe Barsac

The 1969 Château Climens is a compelling example of Barsac's Premier Cru Classé, offering insight into the estate's resilience during a less heralded vintage. Despite the challenges of the 1969 harvest, this wine showcases Climens' dedication to quality and its unique terroir.

In the glass, the 1969 Climens presents a deep amber hue, indicative of its age and the oxidative development characteristic of mature Sauternes. The nose reveals aromas of Satsuma, apricot, and a touch of brown sugar, suggesting a wine that has retained its vibrancy over time. On the palate, it offers citrus freshness with notes of dried peaches and apricot, culminating in a tangy finish. …

TASTING NOTES
Deep mahogany colour with discreet olive highlights on the rim. A very fine, elegant nose, with an opulent core of wild honey, treacle and butterscotch infused with a spicy redolence of black pepper and cinnamon. Cedary cigar box aromas, savoury scents of wild herbs and a discreet aura of fresh mint as a further layer of complexity.

The perfectly calibrated palate is lifted by a fresh acidity and delivers a wealth of rich mellow flavour, molasses, dried figs, sultanas and apricot confit. …

Quinta de Vargellas Vintage Port Oporto Bottled

This Taylor's Vintage Port from the good 1969 vintage is mature now. This is an excellent choice for both enthusiasts and collectors, offering a taste of the exceptional craftsmanship and terroir of the Douro Valley.

Tasting notes
Lovely tawny colour with a brick hue. The nose shows violets and sweet cherry with hints of wintergreen. On the palate it may not be as sweet as the earlier Ports from the 60s, but that is very much a good thing. Improved with air time, and by the end could almost detect some rich and sweet stewed fruits and Christmas spices balanced by the warming alcohol. …
