Description

A Rarity!
1966 Vintage Croft Bottled in 1968 by Berry Bros & Rudd St James London SW1
Capsule marked and scuffed; some seepage many years ago hence lower price.

Wine Advocate 87 points
Croft never seems to get much publicity since the wines, while always very good, sometimes even excellent, never quite reach the superb level of the top houses in Oporto. However, Croft seems to do surprisingly well, often rivaling the top ports, in the less glamorous vintages such as 1975 and 1966. The 1966 is a sleeper: complex, rich, very aromatic, with long, deep flavors.- Robert Parker Jr. (01/1989)

Wine Spectator 90 points
Very elegant in the classic, understated Croft style. Medium red with a ruby center and an earthy, roasted, cherry nose, medium-bodied, with firm tannins and an abundance of licorice and berry flavors. –JS WS
