The 1963 vintage port from Fonseca is, one of the great modern-day classics of vintage port, is an incredibly aromatic, sublime, majestic port that simply defines Fonseca's style perfectly

*** 96 Points Robert Parker **

Fonseca is one of the great port lodges, producing the most exotic and most complex port. It excels in its magnificently complex, intense bouquet of plummy, cedary, spicy fruit and long, broad, expansive flavors. With its lush, seductive character, one might call it the Pomerol of Vintage ports.

"The 1963, one of the great modern-day classics of vintage port, is an incredibly aromatic, sublime, majestic port that simply defines Fonseca's style perfectly." Robert Parker 1989.

***19/20 Points JancisRobinson***
Gorgeous, sweet, long and reverbant, surely drunk at the ideal time in its long evolution. Quite thrilling. Tasted June 2022- Jancis Robinson
***18.5/20 Points JancisRobinson.com***
Tasted blind. Quite a depth of red-brown colour still. Notable, jammy strawberry aromatics that are enveloped by Christmas cake, a few herbal notes and layers of old leather and truffle complexity. This broadens out and develops beautifully in the glass. Sweet, rich and mouth-filling, with a delightful, chocolate-laced finish. Glorious. (TJ)JancisRobinson.com
