Among them, Dow’s stood out for its distinctive dry style and depth of character, gaining legendary status over the decades.

Noval is particularly famous for its Nacional, a Port produced in some years only from a 2 hectare parcel at the heart of the Noval vineyard where ungrafted pre phylloxera vines survive.

"Last July I enjoyed this "legend" at Noval and consumed my share of an entire bottle that was opened for our small group of Port journalists. This VP had a very dark ruby color and was clearly from a perfectly stored bottle. The 1963 is as lithe and graceful as a trapeze artist, and showed what perfection in balance is all about.

Vintage Port
** 96/100 - Wine Spectator **

The Sandeman 1963 Vintage Port stands as a benchmark for classic Port from one of the most legendary vintages of the 20th century. Produced in the heart of the Douro Valley by one of Portugal’s most iconic houses, this wine has matured gracefully for over six decades, offering a remarkable window into the craftsmanship of traditional vintage Port. The 1963 declaration was unanimous across major producers, and Sandeman’s bottling remains one of the standout examples from that historic year.

Now showing its full maturity, the wine reveals a beautifully evolved character. In the glass, it presents a tawny-brick hue with glimmers of amber at the rim. …

Vintage Port- MAGNUM
Excellent Provenance

Ruby highlights surviving in the colour. Deep, intense, Burgundian richness. At first the spirit is rather overpowering. Then dark chocolate starts appearing, followed by herbal, gum cistus, licorice, cigar box, leathery quality really comes through in the mouth and a slightly medicinal character. Medium length.

This house must certainly be the Latour of Portugal. Their ports are remarkably backward yet still impressive when young. Of all the vintage ports, those of Taylor need the longest time to mature and even when fully mature seem to have an inner strength and firmness that keep them going for decades. …

Warre’s Vintage Port 1963 is one of the standout Ports from what is widely considered one of the greatest declared vintages of the 20th century.

Vintage Port (Late Bottled)
Clearance Offer | Mid High Shoulder | Was £445 | Now £175

The 1961 Warre Vintage Port, late bottled in 1965, offers a fascinating glimpse into both vintage character and traditional Port craftsmanship. Warre is one of the oldest and most respected Port houses, founded in 1670, and is known for its elegant, slightly drier house style. This bottling is an interesting piece of history, as it represents an era when some vintage Ports were matured in cask longer before bottling — a practice that gave rise to what we now know as Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) Ports.

The 1961 vintage itself was a relatively small harvest, often overshadowed by the legendary 1963, but still capable of producing beautifully refined wines. …

Vintage Port
37.5cl Bottle
Unlabelled - sold with white plain label | Embossed Capsules | excellent provenance

The 1955 was the only year declared by Fonseca in the 50s. An underrated, indeed almost forgotten, vintage that deserves to be rediscovered.

Notes on the year
The year was marked by an excellent ripening season with hot weather in July and August meaning that the crop was perfectly mature towards the end of September. Most of the well known shippers declared 1955.

Tasting Note
Medium to deep red, with a remarkably youthful ruby edge. Incredible richness and almost young grapey fruit character. As it breathes it opens to reveal spicy mature dark fruit aromas. On the palate it fills the mouth with round, marzipan richness mixed with full chocolate flavour. …

Vintage Port - Plain label.

Warre’s Vintage Port 1947 is a true rarity and a fascinating piece of post-war winemaking history. Coming just two years after World War II, the 1947 vintage was declared by only a few Port houses, making it quite uncommon. Warre’s, known for its elegant and balanced style, produced a Port that has aged with grace and subtlety over nearly eight decades.

The 1947 Warre’s typically shows a deep tawny or amber color, reflecting its age and long bottle maturation. On the nose, it often reveals a complex mix of dried fruit, toasted almonds, figs, and hints of citrus peel, leather, and old wood. The palate is delicate yet persistent, with soft sweetness, mellow tannins, and a touch of spice that lingers on the finish. …

Very Very Old White Port(90 Years)
97 Points- Wine Advocate

In 1927, Mario Braga, creator of the project “Quinta do Mourão”, was born. So too was born this amazing wine, bottled 90 years after as a tribute to their beloved father. Miguel Braga, the current owner, has handcrafted traditional wines, made and aged in the original estates in the Douro. This gives the wines a distinctive flavour profile. The Douro profile is more intense, dark, thick, sweet and spicy, with more intense aromas. With the release of a small number of aged tawnies, the market for these wines amongst aficionados has developed markedly in the last decade.

Golden colour. Intense and complex aromas of dried fruits associated with an amazing acidity that provides it an incredible explosion of freshness in the palate. …

Fonseca's, Vintage Port 1934 Bottled by Hatch, Mansfield and Co. .
Provenance: Christies Sale Raby Castle

Fonseca’s 1934 stands out as an exceptional wine from a split vintage spanning 1934 and 1935. Bottled by Hatch & Mansfield, this is an extremely rare Port, with even the library stock in the Fonseca lodge being very limited.

Still with a deep red core, the wine offers a reserved and refined character, revealing dark chocolate intensity on the nose and a fuller, more textured palate. It exudes lively elegance and freshness, with a subtle hint of salinity adding complexity. Beautifully defined soft berry fruit is perfectly balanced by fine, linear tannins, while a cherry stone freshness lingers gracefully on the finish. …

The house of Fonseca traces its origins to the early nineteenth century. The first evidence of the firm trading in Port is an entry dated 8th April, 1815, in the ledgers of the Real Companhia Velha, the royal monopoly company. This records the purchase of 32 pipes of Port by the firm’s founder, João dos Santos Fonseca. His first documented sale occurred on 14th September, 1815, followed in 1816 by his first overseas shipment.

Fonseca Ports are known for their intense and complex aromatics. A 1934 Fonseca will likely offer aromas of dried fruits (such as figs and dates), nuts (like almonds and walnuts), and spices. …

It all started in 1790 when the 25-year-old son of a Scottish prosperous cabinetmaker asked for a 300£ loan from his father to set up as a wine merchant in London.
This ambitious young man was George Sandeman, the founder of Sandeman, who ended up establishing one of the world’s leading Port and Sherry wine businesses.

From early on Sandeman specialised in these two great Iberian fortified wines and, following a usual practice in those days, began trading not from own offices but from Tom’s Coffee house, on Birchin Lane, London. Business was agreed on a ‘gentleman’s word’ and George soon gained an impeccable reputation, characteristic of The House of Sandeman to today. …

Its inviting nose spreads beautifully from the decanter, revealing refined dark chocolate notes layered over subtle, elegant fruit. On the palate, it showcases creamy fruit, supported by tightly knit, spicy-peppery tannins that remain grippy and remarkably fresh.
