Description

The label is missing from this bottle but is easily identified from the embossed capsule which is tight with no signs of seepage which accounts for the impressive base of neck level.

I have drunk a few of these over the years and in my opinion is only comes second to the Grahams 1960, but of course everyone has their own opinion and tastes when it comes to vintage port!

A tasting note from Jancis Robinson in 2013;
Vintage port from the 1960s is now at its delicious peak, preferably from the vintage celebrating its half century, 1963, but neither the rather more delicate 1966s nor 1960s are to be sniffed at. I had a chance to taste Warre's 1960 for the first time recently and was hugely impressed. As well as still having admirable sweetness and concentration, it seemed to have more than whiff of the wildness and richness of a fine Quinta do Noval Nacional about it.
