Krohn
Colheita Porto Port Blend 1976
Rich, more concentrate, brownish color like, lack of complexity but has power, citrusy fruit notes but lack of fruit character, short in mouth, more tobacco notes, lack of acidity, a more quiet style to me #portwineday #winelover — 11 years ago
Porto Quevedo
Vintage Porto 1974
A port that needs time to open up, it is clean and rich, while having marked noted of oxydation it still has fruit notes - the acidity is there with a light spicy character, a delicate and complex port that unveils a nice finish #portwineday #winelover — 11 years ago
Kopke
White 30 Years Old Port
Some of the best port wines as it is white port very low volumes produced, made only of traditional Douro white grapes - Light amber color, Dried figs, nutty character, very silky with great acidity, jammy notes, orange zest, great balance and a long finish - a truely great port wine #portwineday #winelover — 11 years ago

Vintage Port Blend 1970
Another great elegant aged vintage, a bit more solar profile, plummy, rich, burned cigar notes, spicy character - a nice wine 😉 #PortWineDay #winelover — 11 years ago
Quinta do Noval
Vintage Port Blend 1978
1978 First vintage port made and bottled in the Douro - from a magnum, a very floral and charming profile, very classy and elegant, crispy fruity red berries and fresh notes, light profile but nice complex spicy - a very beautiful port :) #portwineday #winelover — 11 years ago
Rozès

C. da Silva
Dalva Vintage Port Blend 1975

W. & J. Graham's
Limited Single Harvest Tawny Port Blend 1972
Intense and powerful port with nice elegance, it as light saline notes, a rich wine with spicy character, dried fruit notes, light cocoa and citrus zest like - a brilliant port bottle #portwineday #winelover — 11 years ago
Adriano Ramos Pinto
Vintage Porto 1970
Herbal like nose at beginning, spicy nose, very peppery character, at first taste it has like a metallic note but that fades away with time, round but heavy style pulls some berries and light cherry notes - an ok aged vintage port #portwineday #winelover — 11 years ago

Niepoort (Vinhos) S.A.
Porto Garrafeira Port Blend 1977
Garrafeira a style initiated by Niepoort, lets say a kind of cross between ruby and tawny even if it is more tawny style - this one was set in demi jonhs in 1982 and bottled in 2007 - Pure, clean and straight but a bit closed at beginning, a port wine that really needs time to open up - it is all about elegance, it still feels quite young and gets a beautiful freshness #PortWineDay #winelover — 11 years ago
Poças
Colheita Porto 1976
A house well know by their colheiras ports - pale color, sweet almost coconut notes, light spicy profile, a precise wine with some elegance, drier style, almost iodine notes, medium bodied - a fine port with a good balance but could be a bit richer #portwineday #winelover — 11 years ago
Barros
Colheita Porto 1974
Nice fruit notes but a rich and creamy port, spicy character, lacking of acidity, the caramel profile give it a bit of elegance but less finesse, a more muscular style - to note: more caramel notes in a Port matured in the warmer Douro, while the colder Gaia Porto, it will get more citrus notes #portwineday #winelover — 11 years ago
Dalva
71 Golden White Porto
A beautiful old white tawny port - rich, it offers notes of prune and figs, almost light oxidation like madeira wine - an expressive citric acidity mark, fruity with great length, it is elegant and intense, light volatile character - a brilliant port 😋👏 #winelover #portwineday — 11 years ago
Sandeman
Vintage Port 1970

The oldest Port wine house since 1638 - delivers again its specialty a great and classic colheita, very gourmand in its style, it is elegant and fine with great and long acidity, much vanilla notes and spicy profile, maybe missing a bit of length - however a great port :) #portwineday #winelover — 11 years ago
