Description

A good, dusty old bottle. 1970, a great port vintage.
I am always reluctant to clean off the cellar dust etc.

Good complete label, capsule all intact and the vintage is stamped on the lead.

Level. Totally black glass = impossible to certify the exact level.
No signs of any seepage however.

WineSearcher has this port offered at £140/150 + VAT.
Anything less will be a true bargain...


From 'Vintage Wine & Port' website:

An outstanding port from a classic vintage. The Fonseca 1970 is now fully mature, and is probably one of the finest glasses of port that you will ever taste. A wine of this quality will age superbly for many decades to come. A magnificent wine with abundant ripe fruit flavours and concentrated tannins. Perfect harmony and balance places this Port amongst the all-time greats.

Robert Parker, renowned critic writes of this Port.... "... it excels in its magnificently complex, intense bouquet of plummy, cedary, spicy fruit and long, broad, expansive flavours. With its lush, seductive character, one might call it the Pomerol of Vintage ports. The 1970, of course, is a powerful Fonseca with an exotic bouquet and lush, creamy, multidimensional flavours.”

Parker Rating 93/100 (outstanding)
