Comprehensive list of 50 Year Old Tawny & White Ports

Post by Roy Hersh »

50 Year Old Tawny:
1. Kopke
2. DR
3. Quinta do Noval
4. Taylor's Golden Age


50 Year Old White:
1. Kopke
2. DR




I'll keep this as the master list and include what everyone is willing to add to the list and as time goes on and there are new ones that are released, we can add them here. As I have had a lot of both, I would like others to participate and it not just be me creating a list.

Thanks for your help.

Enólogo
Kopke
Messias
Quinta da Devesa
Quinta das Lamelas
Quinta do Mourão (S. Leonardo)

Quinta das Carvalhas (one of the top 50’s I’ve had).

I think Roy is talking specifically about the new 50 Year Old category.

DR's old "Very Old White" was also 50 years old, but pre-dated the new category. They've now stopped making it and make a "50 Year Old White" for the new category instead. My guess is that the Viera de Sousa VOW is something similar.
