1963 Quinta de la Rosa Vintage Port
This was labeled Sandeman. This was a time when QdlR was selling their grapes to Sandeman and this was made from grapes from the Quinta especially for them by Sandeman. To my knowledge this was never commercially released. A solid cola color with a fragrant nose of dried rose pedals. Semi sweet bodied, dried fruit, spices, well balanced and elegant. A long lingering finish rounded out a surprise of the flight.
94-95 Points
