1963 vintage. Just like the Kool-Aid Man…”Oh Yeah!” Still hot from the alcohol content and pushing the caramel and nuttiness. Tannins fairly tame and medium-bodied at this point but this will outlive all too many of us-with style.

Lots of sediments, cork in good condition. Dense nose of candied red fruit, nuts and caramel. Very complex palate and finish that goes on.

1963 Fonseca's Vintage Port. Dinner at T w neighbors. "We should drink Port after every meal" Great to drink this alone. Sauternes paired better with the Sticky Toffed Pudding dessert. Love this port.
