This never gets much notice even though it is about as good as any Port from this vintage. The rare un-corked Cockburn's is about the only other really fine 1983, along with Nacional from an otherwise mediocre vintage. However, I think that some Ports from 1983 ... like the Dow, still have a long life ahead.
